Arepas: Cornmeal Pockets, Two Ways

Sat, 22 Nov 2025 14:39:00 +0000

An arepa does not get sliced open with a knife the way a bread roll does. You split it while it is still warm enough to steam, and the inside — dense, faintly sweet, still slightly damp from the dough — pulls apart into two matching halves that hold a filling the way a pitta does, only sturdier. Get the crust right on the outside and the whole thing works as a self-contained sandwich that needs no plate.
