About dried food...


It seems that people here like all sorts of dried food. Not sure if they eat it like that or buy it that way so it's easier to store and cook afterwards. Back home we do eat dried food, but we don't have that much variety.

In Chile we eat dried and salted horse meat. We call it 'charqui'. (And it's awesome.)



Not even seafood escapes the dryness. They even sold abalones! I suspect they import them from Japan (at least that's the impression I have after having started to watch "Heart of Greed")

And also all sorts of sea cucumbers...

...that are also kept in glass containers.

I have no idea what this is. I guess at some point I'll end up eating it, same thing with the rest of the food in the photos. :P
