Pupusas

The inauguration of this site hails from Central America: Salvadorian Pupsas.

Pupusas are hand-made filled and enclosed corn tortillas. Any number of ingredients can be put inside the tortilla, but traditionally you will find cheese, beans, and meat. You can create your own combination to taste. Pupusas are usually accompanied by a tangy/spicy coleslaw side called curtido. A cold glass of horchata (rice milk with water) completes the meal. They are delicious!
