a Heart for a Heart

Oh Valentine's Day...

You can go the tried and true Chocolate and Champagne route...
or the Aphrodisiacs.. Oysters and Caviar

But why not go straight to the heart.. Anticuchos!

The popular and delicious street food of Peru..
thinly sliced pieces of cow heart pierced onto skewers and seasoned with vinegar and spices like cumin, garlic, and aji peppers.

They're great with a little boiled potato on the end of the skewer.. or a squeeze of lime.
