Not a Carnivore? No Prob.

The way to Argentina’s heart is through its asado, or barbecue aka parrillada. It’s a country well known for it’s meat.

Not a carnivore? Never fear. Argentineans give whole new meaning to grilled cheese with their trademark dish of provoleta. One of many traditions picked up from Italian immigrants, provoleta is Argentina’s version of provolone. Pungent, sharp, sliced discs of the cheese are topped with chili flakes and herbs, like oregano, then grilled. The nearly melted cheese is served crisp and slightly caramelized on the outside, gooey and smokey on the inside. It’s divine.
