belong dishes, such as, carapulcra (dried potatoes, peanuts
and pork meat), and sopa seca or dry soup, a variation of the
former dish.
From Ica come the beans and chupe de pallares verdes, based
on a milk soup, fish, Chinese shrimp, and, of course, green
beans.
Among the most known desserts and sweets are, the tejas, frijol
colado, alcayote.
Visitors should try the different varieties of wine and pisco
(white grape brandy) and during the due season, cachina.
