The Colombian culture has been always an especial culture, each country can determine or consider that their country is special because of the culture. Yes, it can be and it must be because each culture is different and it has different characteristics. In the case of Colombia and all countries, the cultural structure is based on food, traditions, and important festivals because of different things to celebrate for. In Colombia, the most famous dishes in the Colombian culture are Sancocho, ajíaco, and the Bandeja Paisa. All of the dishes have their unique consistency and way to be prepared. Fortunately, my mom is Colombian, and since I'm just a child I've seen how each one of these dishes is prepared so because of this I learn how to prepare them. In the case of Sancocho is a soup with a consistency a little bit heavy and it has yuca, potato, onion, banana, chicken, and cheese that goes optional but I still recommend it. Ajíaco which is my favorite is very similar to locro de papa in Ecuador but it has chicken and pepper implemented and is delicious. The bandeja paisa has chicharrón, rice, pork meat, fréjol, patacones(fried banana with salt), salad with lettuce tomato, and avocado. These three dishes I cooked them and they are good but when someone tastes them it's clear that a not professional chef do them.
