About Arepa Boyacense
Sweety Salado's arepas boyacenses combine yellow precooked cornmeal with wheat flour and Colombian cuajada. The native cheese enriches the dough as well as filling the centre of these small, thick arepas.
Sugar gives the dough a gentle sweetness alongside the salt, whole milk and melted butter. Each portion is shaped around its cheese filling, sealed and flattened into a round cake.
The arepas cook in butter in a pan, with both faces and the edges browned before immediate serving. This is the author's familiar pan preparation of the Boyacense maize and wheat style.
