  The Creole subculture of food interests me the most.

• wester  on  June 19, 2015

  The very fact that I don't know anything about most of the food in this book makes it interesting to me. But I am definitely going to try a few of the ceviches.

• hillsboroks  on  June 19, 2015

  I love making causas for appetizers for people who have never had Peruvian food.

• Rinshin  on  June 19, 2015

  I love all the nikkei offerings. Some of my favs are Peruvian.

• nicolepellegrini  on  June 19, 2015

  After dining in a few Peruvian restaurants here in New Jersey I am very interested in learning more about the cuisine (a Peruvian cookbook has in fact been on the top of my wish list for some time). I love the ceviches in the restaurants, but always wonder if I can source the best quality fish to prepare them. So I am probably most interested in learning about the anticucho recipes, as so many of them involve organ meats, which I love.

• vinochic  on  June 19, 2015

  I don't know much about Peruvian cooking at all–it all interests me!

• AGENT99  on  June 19, 2015

  I'd love to try something Chifa

• southerncooker  on  June 19, 2015

  Had the pleasure of eating at a couple of Peruvian restaurants while in California. Never tried any recipes though so I'd love to learn how to make some of the dishes we enjoyed at the restaurant.

• lsgourmet  on  June 19, 2015

  I'm most interested in Chifa as I have been treated to two meals at a Chifa restaurant in New Jersey and found the food dynamic! I loved the blend of Chinese and Latino cuisine.

• trudys_person  on  June 20, 2015

  I've never had any Peruvian food, so I'm interested in everything! Thank you!

• Titch  on  June 20, 2015

  traditional Peruvian dish's interest me the most xxx

• jyms  on  June 20, 2015

  nikkei

• SilverSage  on  June 20, 2015

  I'm really interested in Creole – the blending of Africa & South America.

• atticusfinch1048  on  June 20, 2015

  love to make traditional food

• kedmiston  on  June 20, 2015

  I would love to learn about all of them! The Creole and the Peruvian-Italian really interest me. Thank you for the chance to win!

• pandapotamus  on  June 20, 2015

  ceviche!

• tenb  on  June 20, 2015

  I'd try Nikkei and Creole first, as I grew up on the Gulf Coast with its Creole influence & DH grew up in Japan and Texas, so our home cooking is a mixture of many cuisines. But I'd really love to try them all. Thanks for the great contest.

• sgump  on  June 20, 2015

  For me, having lived in Japan for a spell, the Nikkei "subculture" is where I'd start–but I'd enjoy learning about the other influences, as well. Exciting!

• MangerTout  on  June 20, 2015

  I have not ever had any Peruvian food. I look forward to trying some of these recipes.

• kalex426  on  June 20, 2015

  While I'd love to try it all I think the subculture cuisine I'd like to start with is Peruvian-Italian because the cultures seems so different from one another it would interesting to see how they meld.

• lindaeatsherbooks  on  June 21, 2015

  I am interested in Creole.

• termite  on  June 21, 2015

  Creole.

• Larkspur  on  June 21, 2015

  All sound good, but I am married to an Italian, so Peruvian-Italian would probably be the best place to start

• Zosia  on  June 21, 2015

  Peruvian-Italian is of most interest to me.

• nicki.williams  on  June 21, 2015

  I love the freshness of Japanese food and it seems that it would merge well with the fresh flavours of Peruvian dishes such as cerviche so I am quite interested in the nikkei cuisine.

• robinorig  on  June 21, 2015

  I think I'm most interested in the nikkei & the Italian-Perivian but really interested in knowing about all of the different influences. I've eaten at a Peruvian restaurant a few times but really haven't tried cooking anything yet. I'm looking forward to reading through and coming from this cookbook!

• NikkiPixie  on  June 22, 2015

  I have absolutely no idea, but I'd love to find out!!

• jammydodger  on  June 22, 2015

  I'm interested in them all. I love trying new foods.

• knitgirl86  on  June 22, 2015

  I'm interested in all aspects of Peruvian food, but the nikkei is probably the most fascinating. I've been experimenting with Japanese cooking, so this is a nice fusion.

  I'm brand new to Peruvian food…this book would be a new education for me.

• Sandyismum  on  June 22, 2015

  I love the sound of nikkei … what a fantastic combination of cultures and cuisines… yum ! Hats off to Konishi ! I also love the differences of Peruvian-Italian… Creole cuisine has again so many different flavours yet as enticing as ever. Such a hard decision.. I so look forward to cooking with this wonderful book in my kitchen… YUMMY… 🙂

  I'm interested in Nikkei cuisine (including the upcoming cookbook) as well as my first experience with Peruvian food, "A Russian Jew Cooks in Peru."

• Ambrosia  on  June 22, 2015

  I can't remember the name of this dish I used to have in a Peruvian restaurant that has since shut down. It was in the shape of an ostrich egg made out of mashed potatoes with a mixture of beef, raisins, a hard-boiled egg, and other ingredients inside. I would love o find the recipe.

• cambridgecook  on  June 22, 2015

  Nikkei

• llgregg  on  June 23, 2015

  With all those mini climates, the basic ingredients must be dazzling. I would like to try Peruvian food first, then try the mingled cuisines.

• contest718  on  June 23, 2015

  I would love a good recipe for peruvian arroz con pollo. there are so many variations of this dish and it is wonderful to eat in many different ways.

  I would love to try some of the recipes inspired by Creole cooking.

• CharmianC  on  June 23, 2015

  I admit to total ignorance regarding Peruvian cuisine. So I guess all areas interest me! Thanks for this chance.

  Both the Nikkei and the Italian-Peruvian are fascinating to me, as Italian and Japanese cuisine are both close to my heart.

  Nikkei

• love2chow  on  June 28, 2015

  Traditional Peruvian – potatoes, guinea pig, salsas – as a first step. Then I can better understand the continued fusions with chinese, japanese, italian and creole influences.

• linz  on  July 14, 2015

  Favorite sub-culture is street food – all things stuffed – buns, empanadas, potatoes – whatever. But for the favorite Peruvian dish it has to be the Tacu Tacu and the spectacular flavor of the Canary Beans.

  I love Creole and would like to learn the others as well.
