🙏🤤🥰 Grace and peace, beloved **HiveBlog** community and **lovers of simple**, but tasty food. Again, I stopped by to share a typical Venezuelan recipe, which is made a lot for breakfast or dinner in all Venezuelan families, the well-known **"BOLLOS CON PERICO" ACCOMPANIED WITH A GOOD BLACK COFFEE**. I made them for dinner, and it is a recipe that my mother Katy Blanco taught me, since she used to make this dish when I was little, and watching her I learned how to make them. That way, I was inspired and today I prepared them for my husband Carlos Peña, using the traditional corn flour, which is a food that many Venezuelans use to make arepas, empanadas and of course bollos. In addition, using one of the most consumed proteins for its nutritional value and low cost, the egg. And of course, accompanied by a black coffee with the secret ingredient, a touch of cinnamon powder.
