Every month, I mention the BRBC, but What is the BRBC is a group of culinary bloggers with ties to Chile. We are Chileans, some living abroad, some living in Chile. We are a diverse group of chefs, culinary historians, and homemakers.
Our mission is to keep alive the old recipes that have always been prepared in Chilean homes. We do a challenge each month, like desserts with milk, ice cream, or sorbets. This year, we looked into old cookbooks and cooking magazines before 1990. I chose this Torrejas de Arroz Chilean Sweet Rice Pancake for my recipe.
My recipe today is from "Imperial Cookbook" (a brand of baking powder in Chile), and the recipe was submitted by Ms. Luzmira C. Maldonado, Valdivia.
