Made with no preservatives and designed for vegan, meat, and veggie lovers alike, these arepas are kid-friendly, easy to prepare, and truly one-of-a-kind.The Roots of Yuca: A Colombian Tradition
Yuca (cassava) has been a staple in Colombian cuisine for thousands of years. Indigenous tribes and Afro-Colombian communities have cultivated this resilient root vegetable, transforming it into a versatile ingredient that's both nutritious and delicious. Unlike traditional corn arepas, our yuca arepas offer a naturally gluten-free alternative with a subtly sweet flavor and a satisfyingly crispy texture—a true gift to the Gluten-free food Brooklyn community. In Colombia, yuca is more than just food—it's a symbol of resilience and tradition. Farmers harvest it with care, and families pass down recipes from generation to generation.
