We sure do love it! It gives us land-locked Iowan's some great food! Our kids (12, 14, 16 boys) have really gotten into it and have liked most of the meals. The 14 year old really doesn't like fish, but otherwise it's pretty good. Thanks very much! By the way, we decide to make pastel de choclo and pebre. It's just about ready. We'll see how it tastes!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13882881736488869422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8867670219440554340.post-64462745595339003962012-11-04T09:13:48.904-08:002012-11-04T09:13:48.904-08:00Hi again Madailéin!

I always like to be contacted by people who are living and working in the countries I blog about, since that's the best way to obtain authentic recipes. If you would like to share I would definitely do Chile again. Thanks!!<br />Becki Robinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00297315758886641877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8867670219440554340.post-1092039938366024702012-10-28T12:57:19.671-07:002012-10-28T12:57:19.671-07:00I'm a missionary in Chile, and love to cook.
...I'm a missionary in Chile, and love to cook.<br /><br />Seafood is very common here, and I've seen paila marina a lot. Hallullas were a great choice for one of the three staple Chilean breads. The others are marraquetas (think french loaf, but stout and segmented) and pan amasado (much like the hallulla, but smaller and generally home made, as opposed to bought from a bakery). Chileans LOVE their bread. Day-old bread is thrown out to the dogs, or reduced in price drastically, because nobody wants it.<br /><br />I suppose if you wanted to give Chile another go for those of us who don't eat seafood, you could try empanadas de pino (to avoid making pastel de choclo, or "tamale pie," as you called it :-D), with some ensalada chilena, and mote con huesillo as a dessert. I have recipes for all of those, if you like.<br /><br />I don't know if links are allowed, but here's a short (8-minute) video I made about Chile during their September celebrations. There's a brief food section, if you're interested.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-41ZvGdgsc&list=UUyiM0kFJ4SfA-IDPaH2861A&index=1&feature=plcpMadailéinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08042490560998817942noreply@blogger.com
