I prepared Picadillo dish. It is the filling of another popular recipe in Argentina called empanadas. Empanadas are meat pockets and is most commonly made with beef. I enjoyed this dish a lot.
In Argentina meals are very late in the day. For example dinner would be served at 10 p.m.In Argentina meat is very important. Argentinean people have great pride in their meat.
the cattle bred in the pampas are supposed to be special because of the grass.
These are some thing you would eat if you lived in Argentina.In most parts of Argentina, lunch is the biggest meal of the day. Most of the cities (excluding Buenos Aires) close for lunch time. This is when most people return home to enjoy a large meal. Traditional lunches in Argentina are long and well developed. Most of the popular food has European roots. Lots of meats, pastas and breads are included in an Argentina diet.
