Salteñas are a type of baked empanada filled with different kinds of stews. The contents inside vary from chicken to pork and beef. Salteñas are also filled with olives and raisins, egg, etc. I like the thought of a hot savory stew inside a pastry. Although, olives and raisins aren't entirely my acquired taste, so I docked some points. Therefore, I give Salteñas a 6/10.

Arepas are made with just a few key ingredients, the main one being masarepa, which is a pre-cooked corn flour. Popular brands include GOYA and P.A.N. It's important not to confuse masarepa with masa harina, as the latter is used for tortillas. Additionally, you'll need warm water and salt.

They provide protein, fiber, and energy. Arepas also contain magnesium, antioxidants, and may have antiatherogenic properties. Corn contains vitamins A, B1, B5, C, E, and K, as well as iodine, which is important for metabolism and cell function. I rate it 1/10 cause i wouldnt eat it.

Anticuchos de Corazón (Peruvian Beef Heart Skewers) paired with corn, potatoes, and seasoned aji amarillo. I like this meal because These skewers were absolutely amazing and I couldn’t have imagined a better way to prepare the beef heart. The aji panca marinade that coats the beef adds a little spice, but not overwhelmingly so and the accompanying aji amarillo sauce helps increase the heat for those that want a bit more. The texture of the heart was firm due to the low fat content, but not nearly as tough as I was originally expecting. I rate this a 8.5/10.

Mayonesa

Huevo duro

Jamón

Papas fritas

Chivito combines juicy steak, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and fresh veggies, that creates a unique blend of flavor. The combination of the bacon and beef steak, with the toppings of cheese, lettuce, tomato, and the hardboiled egg sounds super good.

What I Would Rate It:

I would rate it a 9/10 because it sounds like it would be great, but with the excessive amount of ingredients I'm not sure if it would be overwhelming.

Paella is one the most popular foods from Spain. It's ingredients include rice, seafood or meat, vegetables, and seasonings.

coquito is a classic puerto rican drink, mainly served during the holidays. it's the same consistency and taste as eggnog and not made much different. contaning coconut milk, rum, condensed milk and vanilla the only difference is coquito has no egg while eggnog does. many times coquito will be topped with sweet cream and some sort of nutmeg or cinnamon. it seems like a very easy drink to make and i would probaly try it without the rum.
