Hello steemianos, this afternoon I would like to share with you some of the customs that we have at home ... like spending time together sharing and of course eating hehe ... Remember that the most important thing in the world is that feeling of belonging and being loved, feelings that we only get with those who are our FAMILY💖
We are all clear that "family" is not only a term used to refer to blood or legal relatives, but to refer to those of us who consider ourselves united by affectionate bonds and with whom we share interests such as traditions.
A tradition that is repeated every year in my life, initially by my grandmother (probably for her was the same with her grandmother), then for my mother and now for my sister and for me, is to prepare some donuts of yucca, celery and cheese, I will share how they do:
We will need:
- 2.5 kg of semi-hard cheese (or as we say here: llanero cheese)
- 1.5 Kg of Celery
- 1.5 Kg of Yuca
- 1Kg Mozarella cheese
- Wheat flour to taste
- 2 Eggs
- 4 Cups of Sugar
- Vanilla to taste
We started by cleaning, washing and boiling cassava and celery, in addition to scratching the llanero cheese:
The yucca and the celery must boil until they are completely cooked (they should soften enough), then they are ground:
Now put in reserve, and mozzarella cheese is ground:
Once the cheese is ready, join the other ingredients (all) and knead until it is a homogeneous mixture and make small balls (it is tested according to the texture and the body of the dough adding little by little flour until you can mold the balls):
Having pre-heated the oven, put on low heat to cook well the balls of our mixture and wait for them to brown:
A mixture of burnt sugar and herbs is usually prepared, or honey is added if it is served as a dessert ... This year, as my father has been suffering from diabetes, we did not make the honey, therefore they remained that way ... The sweet It was put by a cousin with a preparation of flamed cocktails that I call "Dusted" (then we share the preparation is very delicious):
