Butifarra

Butifarra is a characteristic Peruvian sandwich, created from an exquisite mix of pork meat. This dish has its roots in Spanish cuisine, where butifarra refers to a completely different sausage than the one enjoyed in Peru.

In Spain, butifarra is a sausage very different from the one prepared in Peru, where it has been adapted and enriched with local flavors.

It represents the fusion of culinary traditions that have come together to create a unique delicacy. We hope you enjoy it to the fullest!
