what is anticuchos
Anticuchos (singular anticucho, Quechua for Cut Stew Meat) are popular and inexpensive dishes that originated in Peru in the pre-Columbian era; other Andean states, such as Chile and Bolivia, adopted the recipe. The modern dish was adapted during the colonial era between the 16th and 19th centuries.ccording to the text file from the National Library in Lima (Peru), it is believed that the term comes from the Quechua antikuchu (anti : 'Andes' + kuchu : 'court' or uchu : 'porridge, mix'). The writer Erika Fetzer mentions that according to tradition, anticuchos were prepared with meat and flame.
