PERU
one
of the most diverse cuisines in the world
 Only
in recent times has Peruvian cuisine started to be noticed
abroad. Few outsiders had heard of such dishes as ceviche
or carapulca, let alone tried them. Peruvian Cuisine is slowly
but steadily conquering the palates of the most renowned chefs
worldwide. So much so that a world gastronomy tour is now
unthinkable without a stopover in South America's culinary
capital Lima.
Peruvian
cuisine benefits enormosuly from the country's great agricultural
diversity which provides a wide choice of fresh ingredients.
Potatoes and hot peppers from the Andes, fish and seafood
from the Pacific Ocean, mangoes and limes from the coastal
valleys, bananas and manioc from the Amazon jungle . . . a
chef's only problem is abundance of choice. The cuisine has
developed through the gentle influences from other cultures.
Ever since the first blending between Inca and Spanish traditions,
local cooks have been capable of incorporating the flavours
and techniques of the many immigrants that disembarked in
the country's ports, in particular African, Chinese, and Japanese.

Cook
East |
| One
of the delights of a holiday abroad can be experiencing
the real cuisine of the region in the actual cultural
setting. For many of us the cuisine of a region
can be just as novel and interesting as the landscape
or the guilded temples. Even the most casual cook
can be intrigued by the selection of ingredients,
preparation and cooking of the meals, particularly
when the results can be so satisfying. Cook East
has a range of informal classes with cooking schools
well suited for complete beginners as for people
who view cooking as a satisfying hobby. A hands-on
exploration into the cuisine of a culture is an
ideal way to gain insight and greater immersion
into that destination. |
