What are the staple foods in Paraguay?

Answer 1

Paraguay is a cattle-ranching country, so beef is the no. 1 food item, though chicken & pork are also widely available. Sausages are a common appetizer, while the most usual side dish is yuca, a fibrous root vegetable. Paraguay is very hot for most of the year, and food is frequently prepared & eaten outdoors in a quincho, which is a covered area with a large built-in grill and a table with chairs or benches. Sopa paraguaya (literally translated means "paraguayan soup"), is actually a kind of moist cornbread mixed with queso fresco(unaged soft cheese). This, and other dishes, are usually prepared in a dome-shaped mud oven called a tataqua (a GuaraniIndian word). Tropical fruits are everywhere; most people have at least one fruit tree in the yard. Pineapples, Oranges, lemons, grapefruit, bananas, mangos, papayas and avocados are everywhere. The small Paraguayan pineapples are unquestionably the best I have every eaten, and the avocados (which Paraguayans actually don't eat) would put the U.S. varieties to shame. Paraguayn is landlocked, so you won't find much seafood, but Freshwater Fish is available & is very good. Many people in Paraguay are of Italian and/or German descent, so those cuisines are popular. However, Paraguayans do not like spicy food, so visitors will find the food rather bland, but often salty. In Asuncion, you will find restaurants featuring continental fare. Spanish cuisine is popular, and a very large paella is often the feature dish at a party. There are also Chinese restaurants.

Answer 2

Lots and most of the people drink yerba or matte, it is mainly a lot of shredded herbs mixed with vitamins or nutritional supplements, which you add with water. This type of drink has been a Paraguayan tradition for many many many years. You should try some its really good. But if your not paraguayan you might not like it.
