Food...

So...
One of the things we love the most here is food.
When we are not eating in restaurants, most of the time (95%), Assaf cooks... and very good.

Argentinas specialty is meats. There tradition "Al Haesh" is called Asado. They take not the most expensive peaces of meat and put it high above the fire for a long time (around 2 hours) and in the end most of the time they put chorisos (pork or cows hot dogs but very good ones).
They do it with so much love and invest so much time in making the asado, its great to see it. and its even greater to taste it! We also made few times asado in camp sites we stayed in.

Once, we slept in a camp site in Bariloche and after few days ain a row that we ate meat, we said - ok, today we are not going to eat meat and we made pasta. But then, 3 Argentinian guys that made Cordero (lamb) and they had too much so they gave us, and then another Argentinian couple made asado and they also had too much so they also gave us. The conclusion from that day was that you can never decide in Argentina "Today i am not going to eat meat"...

And Chile... In chile the meat is not good, but the fish and sea food is great.
When we were in Chiloe (an island in Chile) we picked up shells from the beach (we looked how the "grandmothers" do it, and we did the same. of course we found less than them, but still we had enough) and then Assaf cooked and made sauces and it was cheap and tasty...
In another time we bought crabs meat in 3$ for half kilo (so cheap) and Assaf made a pasta with cream and crubs.

We found out a very interesting thing about fish salmon. In chile it was very good, but in Israel we dont like it so much. we talked with some people and we found out that the salmon in Israel is a white salmon (and not red), but the fish eat something that make them become red so thats the reason its not as good as the original red salmon.

Accept that, everywhere we go and see fruits, we try them. For example, in a bike trip in Pucon we found in the way blueberries. we took a lot of them and made a good desert in the evening and then I made a jam.

In another time while trekking in chiloe, we saw a local guy taking out fruits from a plant (as you can see in the picture), so we did like him. it was very tasty.

We are waiting to see what will be the food like in our next destination...
