Güirila

Güirila

A Güirila is a tortilla made from young white corn. They are thick, sweet, filling, and usually eaten with crumbled white cheese.

Güirilas are cooked on a hot metal sheet in banana leaves to prevent them from sticking or burning.

Güirilas originated in Palcila, a small town in Matagalpa, in the north of Nicaragua. Nicaragua-stub
