How to Feed 10,000 Rebel Fighters for 50 Years
Long read so I'll leave it there....https://www.atlasobscura.com/article...nAkmkLrkhrgwYkTHE NIGHT BEFORE, RICARDO SEMILLAS and his neighbors had cooked like they were still rebels in the FARC-EP (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia - Ejército del Pueblo). They had patiently kneaded eggs, water, and salt into flour. They then carefully divided the dough into balls, and flattened them until they became translucent, like soft chiffon. When hot oil touched the dough sheets, it puffed them up like a breeze filling a curtain. Once golden, the dough had become cancharinas, which is known amongst the group as “the bread of guerrilleros.”
In the morning, they woke before dawn and packed fried beef and the cancharinas. But the 15 former guerrillas were not going to war. Instead, the food that once fueled their marches and civil war was a pack lunch as they joined a national strike to protest tax reforms, high unemployment rates, and widespread poverty intensified by the pandemic.
