Venezuelan Corn Recipes

Venezuelan host Juan Pablo Gonzalez inspires us with corn recipes from his home country. Corn plays an important role in Venezuelan cuisine and is used in all sorts of dishes. To start, Juan Pablo prepares cachapas, a fried corn pancake that brings back memories of his childhood walks to school. Topped with pork and cheese, this crispy pancake can be enjoyed either savoury or sweet. Next up, Juan Pablo shares another Venezuelan culinary tradition: grilling. Using a hot grill, he cooks up a tender, juicy steak and an irresistible charred corn salad. He then shows us an easy beef stew, perfect for those days when you want to enjoy a delicious meal without spending the day in the kitchen. His secret? Keep the corn on the cob and the meat on the bone while they simmer. To finish things off, Juan Pablo whips up a corn-based dessert, adding another traditional Venezuelan ingredient, coconut, to make a divine pudding treat.
