Sancocho

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Sancocho by country

The Dominican Republic regards sancocho as the national dish.

In Panama, where it is also the national dish, it has become the most common dish to serve to foreigners, as part of the country's traditional culture. It is usually made with chicken, yams (ñame not sweet potatoes) and culantro and often served with rice on the side. This version (which comes from the Central Provinces region) is the most widely known. There are regional variations.

In Colombia, sancocho is a fairly rustic dish. Ingredients usually include chicken or fish, plantains, yuca, cilantro, corn, and potatoes.
