In Argentina, empanadas became a national symbol, with each province developing its own unique fillings and cooking methods. In Chile, empanadas are typically baked and filled with a mixture of ground beef, onions, and spices. In Colombia, empanadas are often deep-fried and filled with a variety of ingredients, including meats, cheeses, and vegetables.
Chapter 2: Essential Techniques for Perfect Empanadas
Creating perfect empanadas requires mastering a few essential techniques. The first is making the dough. Empanada dough should be pliable and easy to work with, so using the correct ratio of flour, water, and salt is crucial. Once the dough is made, it needs to be rested before rolling it out. This allows the gluten to relax, making the dough more flexible and less likely to tear.
Filling the empanadas is another important step. The filling should be moist and flavorful, but not too wet, as this can make the empanadas soggy. When sealing the empanadas, make sure to press the edges together firmly to prevent them from opening during baking or frying.
