Quiero cerrar esta temporada de momentos foodies conociendo la gastronomía noroccidental de Venezuela con este que posiblemente sea el producto más importado de mi país actualmente. Los tequeños y aunque su origen es más cercano a la zona metropolitana, en el estado Zulia lo han perfeccionado tanto al punto de ser un plato ícono de esta localidad.
I want to close this season of foodie moments getting to know the northwestern gastronomy of Venezuela with what is possibly the most imported product of my country at the moment. The tequeños and although its origin is closer to the metropolitan area, in the state of Zulia they have perfected it so much to the point of being an iconic dish of this locality.
El tequeño es un palito de queso fresco cubierto de una delgada capa de masa de trigo que lo envuelve y se fríe; es el infaltable en fiestas familiares, bautizos y bodas (como decimos) generalmente se acompaña con salsa golf (salsa rosada), pero en Maracaibo la acompañan con su salsa tártara y es una locura.
The tequeño is a fresh cheese stick covered with a thin layer of wheat dough that wraps it and is fried; it is a must at family parties, baptisms and weddings (as we say) it is usually accompanied with golf sauce (pink sauce), but in Maracaibo they accompany it with their tartar sauce and it is crazy.
In every corner of this city there is a place that sells this type of products, but after trying in several places and in a few visits, I can assure you that this is the place where they sell the best ones.
El queso se mantiene jugoso, alveolado, fresco y la masa crujiente sin invadir y un equilibrio para su baño de salsa, es muy difícil comerse solo uno.
The cheese remains juicy, honeycombed, fresh and crispy dough without invading and a balance for your sauce bath, it is very difficult to eat just one.
Para mí está franquicia es la mejor cuando de tequeños se trata, en cada ciudad del planeta deberíamos tener una franquicia de Shop pero ese privilegio solo lo tienen en Maracaibo, espero pronto viajar a otros lugares de Venezuela y mostrarles qué se come en las calles de mi país.
For me this franchise is the best when it comes to tequeños, in every city on the planet we should have a Shop franchise but that privilege is only in Maracaibo, I hope to travel soon to other places in Venezuela and show you what is eaten in the streets of my country.
