Paraguay Expat and Travel ArticlesExploring the Obscure Paraguayan Cuisine
Admittedly, the cuisine of Paraguay is not something that can easily conjure images in one's mind. Paraguay is not a force to be reckoned with in the culinary world, and those who are not that much familiar with the country are sure not to know about the cuisine that it represents. For those who already live in Paraguay, many even think that Paraguayan cuisine is nothing more than junk food and pizza. You still have to dig deeper in order to find good restaurants offering genuine Paraguayan food.
The cuisine of Paraguay may be compared to that of Uruguay and the Falkland Islands. To a larger extent, it is similar to the rest of South America with the focus on meat. South America is the world's largest exporter of meat products, and it is rightly so that it has a large influence on its continental cuisine, including the cuisine of Paraguay. Visitors to Paraguay should not miss those asado-centered delicacies. Asado is basically cheap grilled meat sold everywhere. Items such as tapa de cuadril, corte Americano and colita de cuadrili. For rarer fare, there's costillas (ribs), mondongo (tripe), lengua (tongue), chinchulin (small intestine), and tripa gorda (large intestine). It will take the culinary adventurer in you to try out these grilled pieces, but those who do try them out are surprised to find them tasty. All asado products are normally accompanied with mandioca, the staple food. As mentioned above, you will rarely find good Paraguayan food in restaurants. This is because Paraguayan cuisine is largely anchored on street food and out-of-way foodie places, such as unmarked homes. For pastries, you should try out the empanadas, or bread with various fillings like fruits and meat. You should also not miss the chipa, or cheese bread made from manioc flour. Paraguayan cuisine may not be popular on the global stage as much as the cuisines of its neighboring countries, but those who do try them out will be surprised just how much reflective of the local culture the food is. Now stop dropping by McDonald's and start eating those asado! You can talk about...
