What is an Empanada?
They are much like a turnover or pastry; they’re essentially a filling folded inside of a dough, which is then served either baked or fried. Empanadas are a staple latin-american hand-held food-pocket, originating in Spain that has since made its way to all of South and Central America. Each culture has adapted them into their own unique version.
What’s special about Argentine empanadas?
Although all empanadas are delicious, they are not all created equal! Each culture makes their own unique style of dough and fillings. In Argentina, it is common for empanadas to come in a vast variety of flavors. We use a savory flaky wheat crust and stuff them with juicy, flavorful fillings of seasoned meat, cheese, and vegetables. They are a huge staple of our culture, as pizza is to American culture.
Made with the freshest ingredients
We believe that fresh ingredients are the foundation of all good flavor as well as the platform for true nourishing food. We are committed to using whole foods as we stay away from processed food and preservatives. All of our dough is made weekly, from scratch, with Italian 00 wheat flour.
