The bold and satisfying result when you make it yourself is different. the asado is an Argentinian social…

I ate Locro at three different restaurants in the same week to compare. The results were illuminating. The use of yerba mate varied significantly — only one got it right.

I spent an afternoon making Locro from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting dulce de leche right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks.
