Chilean Country Bread is what country ladies bake every day at home for their families or to sell. It never tastes the same to me if you buy it at a bakery. Most Chileans enjoy this bread when on vacation: at the lake or at the beach. Sometimes is improved with pig cracklings knead into the dough, you can use fried bacon if you feel indulgent.
The rolls have a sturdier interior than American rolls.
Most common toppings or uses for Chilean Country Bread:
- For breakfast with scrambled eggs, avocado
- Serve cut for an appetizer with Pebre
- On sandwich: with ham and cheese for picnics, or at restaurants as Chacareros (steak, tomato, green beans) or Barros Luco (steak and melted cheese)
