A few days ago, I started to photograph all the dinners we make at home for 6 days, I wanted to share with you what we "usually" eat during the night and present you what is cooked in my family's house for dinner or at least 6 dinners of 6 different nights through these photographs that I show you today.

Some of these dinners we do not usually repeat them so often, for different reasons, but I think the main one is that in our Venezuelan culture, we traditionally eat daily (either breakfast or dinner) the famous "Arepas ", so in many homes in this country, they are given some priority on our tables.

Among the dishes I share with you in the photos are the previously mentioned "Arepas", also the "Pastelitos" (or as we called them when we were kids the "empanadas de pepitas") and the "Rosquitas con Queso Blanco ", very similar to the "Mandocas" but made without plantains.

As you will see, arepas are not always what we eat but we repeat them as breakfast or dinner constantly, but I wanted to bring you some variety and not just stay with 6 arepa dinners, because otherwise the post would have a very different title than the one it has now.

In each photo I leave you the name of that dish, dishes made by my mom and me for dinner every night at home. There were only 6 dinners that I captured in photos but in each one of them there is a part of our culture and our intimacy as a home; but through them, today I can share with you a little bit of that culinary intimacy that lives in my home.

Hace unos días atrás, comencé a fotografiar todas las cenas que hacemos en casa por 6 días, quería compartir con lo que "usualmente" comemos durante la noche y presentarles lo que se cocina en casa de mi familia para cenar o al menos 6 cenas de 6 noches distintas a través de estas fotografías que les muestro hoy.

Algunas de estas cenas no solemos repetirlas con tanta frecuencia, por distintos motivos, pero creo que el principal es que en nuestra cultura venezolana, solemos comer tradicionalmente de forma diaria (ya sea de desayuno o de cena) las famosas "Arepas", por lo que en muchos hogares de este país, se les da cierta prioridad en nuestras mesas.

Entre los platos que les comparto en las fotos están las anteriormente mencionadas "Arepas", también los "Pastelitos" (o como les llamábamos de pequeños las "empanadas de pepitas") y las "Rosquitas con Queso Blanco", muy parecidas a las "Mandocas" pero hechas sin plátano.

Como verán, no siempre es arepa lo que comemos pero si la repetimos como desayuno o cena constantemente, pero quise traerles algo de variedad y no quedarme solamente con 6 cenas de arepas, porque sino el post tendría un título muy diferente al que ahora tiene.

En cada foto les dejo el nombre de ese plato, platos hechos por mi mamá y por mi para cenar cada noche en casa. Fueron solo 6 cenas que capturé en foto pero en cada una de ellas hay una parte de nuestra cultura y de nuestra intimidad como hogar; pero a través de ellas, hoy puedo compartirles un poquito de esa intimidad culinaria que habita en mi hogar.

I would love trying pastelitos at some point. I heard it's pretty amazing. In my country, we have something called pastel and it's pretty similar but we don't serve it with the salsa that you have other there.

Pastelitos are pretty good, you can actually buy the dough or making it, either way, they're really good and the filling can be anything, literally.

I hope you can taste them one day!
