Keep a jar of Garrapiñada de Mani on hand for quick snacking. The caramelised coating gives every peanut a crisp bite, light sweetness, and satisfying crunch that’s hard to resist.

Buenos Aires Guide

During our trip to Chile and Argentina last June, we also visited Buenos Aires. We stayed for 5 days in this beautiful city, which is the capital of Argentina and one of the biggest and most important cities in Latin America.

Buttery, crumbly, and filled with Dulce de Leche, these Alfajores de Maicena melt in your mouth and make every tea time feel special. A traditional treat that is simple to make and share.

Cafayate Guide – Argentina

During our trip to Chile and Argentina, we travelled from Salta to Cafayate by car, stopping along the way in Cachi and Molinos. Cafayate is the unofficial capital of the Calchaquíes Valley. The town is also at the heart of a large wine-producing region, which comes second only to Mendoza.

White Sandwich Bread

White Sandwich Bread

I absolutely adore homemade bread and I try and bake some as often as I can. My go-to bread recipe is this easy to make Ciabatta, as I love bread with a crunchy top. However, I also like homemade sandwich bread. I find it much easier to digest than store-bought ones.

Salta Guide

Salta Guide – Argentina

During our trip to Chile and Argentina, we stayed 3 separate nights in the city if Salta, in Argentina’s North West. We didn’t stay for 3 consecutive days but used Salta as a “stop-over” in between other destinations during our road trip in the region.

During our recent trip to South America, we also visited Iguazu Falls. This was one of the must-do’s from our bucket list, so I am very happy we could add it to the trip!
