An Argentine dish traditionally served at Christmas Eve or New Year’s Eve dinners as part of a cold buffet, the torre de panqueques (also known as fiambre alemán or torre primavera) always proves to be a crowd-pleaser. At its most basic, the torre de…

The beauty of this Colombian style lentil soup is that it is super easy, and is just as tasty when it's only lukewarm as it is when it's hot.
