One of my earliest childhood memories is walking around in my family's big house in Peru during one of our big reunions. I was only a little toddler, bumping around into tables, chairs, people...I remember trying soda for the first time at one of these reunions, but more vividly, I remember trying what is now my most favorite food: papa a la huancaina! My family has been making this delicious meal for decades, or possibly longer), and every generation passes down it's own different style and tweaks. This is the improvement I've made upon my mom's recipe, which is more to my liking, and to most of my family's and friend's liking as well.
