Peru
Peru, located in western South America, is a country known for its incredible diversity. From the Amazon basin to the Pacific Ocean and the peaks of the Andes, Peru offers a wide range of landscapes, cultures and traditions.
The country was home to the Inca civilization, one of the oldest in the region. In the 16th century, Peru was colonized by Spain, leaving a lasting impact on its culture. Today, Spanish is the official language of Peru and its food is influenced by both cultures.
In 2017, I had the opportunity to visit Peru for a week. I learned a lot about the country during my trip, from its stunning landscapes to its rich culture.
One of the things that caught my attention the most was the diversity of Peru's landscape. The citadel of Machu Picchu, built in the 15th century during Inca rule, is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the world. I also visited Cusco, the ancient capital of the Inca Empire, and Manu National Park, in the Amazon basin.
I also had the opportunity to meet many Peruvians. I learned that Peruvian culture is deeply rooted in Amerindian traditions, but is also influenced by African, European and Asian cultures.
But what impressed me the most was the Peruvian food. I tried a variety of traditional dishes, such as ceviche, ají de gallina, and arroz con pato. They were all delicious and unique.
This cookbook is inspired by my experience in Peru. It contains a selection of traditional Peruvian recipes, both simple and elaborate. I hope you enjoy it.
