Peanut Paste
- another concept -
Imagine that you have some stuffed chilies and some peanut paste is added as part of the filling. In first place a 180º turn will be given to the dish and some fabulous flavors will be obtained . However this paste has another modality because it can also be used as salsa – that can be put to a chicken , duck, pork , rice , vegetables, etc. The dishes will change so much that it will be difficult to remember its original version.
