Locro
The black slaves in Agentina, before the revolution, had great food which they made from the things that were left from the animals in slaughterhouses. Then they sold them in the streets and the most common plate was the locro. The locro is prepared with veal legs, corn and vegetables. Today it is a traditional food in Argentina and throughout the region it`s preparation is varied, but what is not lost are the vegetables and the very slow cooking. Meats are cooked separately and then added to the vegetables that are usually squash, corn kernels and is seasoned with hot sauce.

Dulce de Leche
This is made from boiling condensed milk until it becomes a thick caramel paste. To say that is a favorite among Argentineans would be a huge understatement. It is eaten at almost every meal of the day and for snacks in between. One of the favorite preparations is with alfajores, two short bread cookies with dulce de leche in the middle and dipped in chocolate. We have no idea how they haven't all died from sugar shock.
