Mayocoba are called Canary Beans. One of the most eaten beans in Peru. I like to cook them with some chorizo peruano, or pork belly, and aji amarillo. Kind of like a Peruvian pork and beans.

I love salsa criolla, what can I say?!
 
Parrillada Argentina.

Tira de asado(short ribs), entraña(skirt steak), morcilla(blood sausage), mollejas(sweet breads), and chorizo argentino.

I made the chimichurri last night with parsley, oregano, garlic, roasted Hatch green chiles, aji amarillo, aji limo, half a rocoto, olive oil, red wine vinegar, and S&P.

You have to peel off the silverskin from the entraña before you cook it.

You also want to marinate the mollejas in lemon juice for a bit before grilling them.

I demand answers!! How did you cook the beef? (Please) [emoji5]

I minced up the yellow onion, and sauteed it with minced garlic, and the diced up bacon. Once fully sweated, I added two big tablespoons of aji panca to the pan, a teapoon of cumin, and continued simmering. I cut the beef into 3 inch strips, then added it to the pan with everything else to brown. When the beef was browned, I added 2 cups of chicken broth, and 4 cups of water, then covered and simmered the beef for about 2 hours. I pulled the beef chunks out after the 2 hours, shredded it, then added it to a separate pan. I cooked the black beans in most of the the broth left from cooking the meat.

I diced up a rocoto, added that with the shredded beef, and drizzled it in a cup of broth from the original pan. I then slowly simmered the shredded beef with the rocoto, until the beef had re absorbed the broth. I plated it up with the plantains, rice, and black beans. I gave a dusting of freshly diced culantro for flavor and aesthetics.
 
I went to the annual Taste of Peru festival today in DC. I ate a ton of amazing Peruvian food, and attended a few cooking classes.

I got to see one of my favorite Peruvian chefs, Jose del Castillo, do a class on leche de tigre. He made 5 different types of leche de tigre in half an hour. He owns and operates 3 restaurants in Lima, Peru. I learned a lot.
