Hallullas Chilean BreadA traditional recipe for Chilean bread: Hallullas.

In Chile, families either buy Marraquetas or Hallullas as the bread to be enjoyed at home, they are like our tortillas, we have to have them. Hallullas are a lot easier to do at home than Marraquetas.

Hallullas are served warm from the oven or toaster, and open to enjoy as a sandwich with butter, ham, and cheese, or as an open sandwich with avocado or butter and jam. This recipe captures the flavor of the Hallulla. Enjoy!
