Peruvian gastronomy is recognized worldwide for its tasty dishes such as Anticuchos, Mazamorra, Picarones, Grilled Chicken, and Causa Rellena, among others. They are some of the many culinary dishes of the country, showing you their preparation and history and testing the seasoning of each cook or, as we Peruvians call it, "la señito."
