¡Hoy es sábado sabroso! (Today is savory Saturday!)
La fecha es el veintidós (22) de enero del año dos mil veintidós. (The date is January 22, 2022.)
El plato de la semana es: pupusas. (The dish of the week is: pupusas.)
Salvadoran pupusas can be thought of as stuffed corn tortillas. The most common fillings are cheese, meat, beans, or a combination of all three. Pupusas are traditionally served with curtido, a cabbage salad, and salsa roja, a spicy tomato sauce.
My favorite pupusas are pupusas de queso—the cheesy ones.
Los ingredientes para preparar pupusas de queso son: (The ingredients to prepare cheese pupusas are:)
| masa harina | (dried corn dough) |
| agua | (water) |
| queso fresco | (Salvadoran queso fresco – fresh cheese) |
| quesillo | (quesillo – soft cheese) |

Let’s knead, roll, and fill some pupusas using this recipe. ¡Qué rico! (How delicious!) Practice saying the name of each ingredient as you work.
¡Que tengas un sábado sabrosísimo! (May you have a super savory Saturday!)
