What is Chipa?

 

The chipa is a typical food from Argentina that is mainly made with tapioca starch, cheese, eggs, butter and salt.

 

There are several reasons why Argentine chipá is considered good:

 

  • Flavour: The flavour of chipa is delicious, with a salty and cheesy taste that is hard to resist. Additionally, the aroma that it gives off when cooking is very pleasant.
  • Texture: The texture of chipa is soft and fluffy on the inside, but with a crispy crust on the outside. This makes it very appealing to the palate and visually.
  • Versatility: Chipa is a very versatile food that can be eaten at any time of the day. It can be eaten as breakfast, a snack, or as a side dish for main courses.
  • Tradition: Chipa is a traditional food in Argentina that has been passed down from generation to generation. This makes it a very beloved and valued food by Argentinians.

    The product comes frozen, uncooked, ready to bake whenever is best for you. So it should be stored in the freezer. It can be for a special opportunity, or just because you feel like a snack at home. 

     

    How am I supposed to cook it?

    In the back of our packages there will always be instructions. However, they can be baked in many different ways. You can bake them in the oven, air fry them for a cheese explosion, or I've grilled in the BBQ in the past. The time will vary in the instrument used.
