Recipes from Argentina
Cooking this selection
Asado, Salta-style empanadas, locro and alfajores offer different preparation schedules in this Argentine selection. Locro is planned around its grains and meats; empanadas need a cooked filling cooled before assembly. Alfajor cookies should cool before filling.
Planning the preparation
For grilling, create zones with different heat levels and check each meat cut separately. Keep empanada filling free of loose liquid and seal without overfilling. For a complete menu, prepare locro and alfajor cookies earlier, reserving assembly and grilling for when you can attend to them.
