Empanada Story
What is an empanada?
“Empanada, long story short.”
No one can get out in Argentina and do not find one empanada store on the way. In fact, Empanada is the nation’s famous food snack. History tells us something funny though: the empanadas have their origins in Iberia, specifically Galicia (North of Spain) as well as in Portugal. They first appeared in medieval Iberia during the time of the Moorish invasions in the middle age and the name comes from the Spanish verb “empanar”, which literally translates as “embraced”, which means wrapped or coated in bread..
The dish was then kept throughout the years and was later carried to Latin America by Spanish colonists in the XVI century, becoming gradually so popular until it could claim its place as one of the favorite top consumed food products in the region.
The years have then passed by and it the story brings us to 2019, Budapest, and a new chapter is about to come… welcome to the world of empanadas, welcome to Empanada Story!
