*sound on*
The secret to #crispyporkbelly ? It’s the preparation before it’s cooked:
.
1️⃣ Score and poke the skin so it can dry out and the #collagen can break down
2️⃣ Apply a layer of #seasalt on the skin and leave exposed in the fridge overnight to draw out moisture
3️⃣ Bake at 250°F for 3 hours #lowandslow to break down the collagen and tenderize the skin
.
Afterward, bake at 450°F for 1 hour rotating in the oven as needed until skin is #goldenbrown and #puffy
.
This recipe is super #versatile and the meat part of the #porkbelly can be seasoned in Mediterranean, Asian or Latin spices
🇵🇦🐖🥓😋

Traditional #panamanian dance and music 🎶 are a lot like its food, rooted in #indigenous #african and #european traditions
.
#callandresponse #windinstruments and #strings provide the #music 🎻

#circularformation #partnerdancing and #chassé typify the #choreo

Happy #bicentennial Panama!

#foodmemory is the flavor experience equivalent of #oralhistory
.
One of the #guardians of #panamanianfood is @isaacvillaverde owner and chef at @latapadelcoco
.
He researches #afropanamanian recipes, history and culture and brings them to life with dishes like this #onepot which could have influences from rice-based dishes like #arrozconpollo #asopao and #trinipelau but can only exist thanks to food memories from #panama
🇵🇦🥘👨🏽🍳🥰

Thanks to Panama’s protection of the #embera #guna #wounaan #ngäbe #buglé people and their cultures, we can enjoy their #richhistory customs and traditions
.
#indegenouspeople ‘s strong influence in #panamanianfood can be seen in the maize-based #tortilla #almojabano and #empanada in this #mestizo #breakfast at @belisariopanama

Walking🚶🏻♀️through #cascoantiguo in #panamacitypanama #nevergetsold
.
Technically, this is Panama City 2.0, dating from the 17th century and built after the original city and first #europeansettlement on the #pacificocean was burned down by #captainmorgan 🏴☠️ . Nowadays you can appreciate #howtheotherhalflive in this area within the original city walls
.
Thanks to @unesco designating this a #worldheritagesite , for the past 25 years, #architects #historians #investors and #developers have been #workingrelentlessly to #capturethemagic 🪄 once again

#whatadifference #fourcenturies make
.
#cascoantiguo in #panamacitypanama was founded in the #17thcentury and was the rebuilding of the city after the original settlement (1st one on the Pacific by Europeans) was destroyed by #captainmorgan and his crew
.
The #modernskyline on the #waterfront is the result of an ongoing #realestateboom that took off in the 21st century after the US handed the #panamacanal to the #panamanians

#greekfood and a slice of #mykonos in #panamacity
.
It may sound #unexpected , but because of the #panamacanal ‘s #globalconnectivity , there’s always someone around the world with #panama on their mind
.
You can find very good classics like #moussaka #spanakopita and #gigantebeans at @souvlakigrpty which is an outpost of the #awardwinning @souvlakigr in #nyc

Now that the wet season is in full swing, here are some #rainyday ideas when visiting #panamacitypanama :
1️⃣ #panamanians don’t let a little #weather get in their way, so there’s always a good, #climatecontrolled #mall nearby: @multiplazapa is the #chicest 👠 with #ultraluxury boutiques 🤑and #posh eateries like @bruttitorest @laboucheriepty @cafeunido and @athanasioupty ; @albrookmall is the biggest in Central America and you will definitely get your #10ksteps visiting shops 🛍, #foodcourts, a #carousel 🎠and a #bowlingalley 🎳
2️⃣ check out a #museum or two 🏛🏛: it’s a great opportunity to dwell longer and take your time admiring exhibits, reading descriptions and watching videos in their entirety at @biomuseo @museodelcanal @mac_panama @museomercedpanama
3️⃣ embrace getting wet and go for a long walk in the #warmrain on the 2-mile loop at @parqueomarpma 🌳🚶🏽♂️🏡 and reward yourself at the end with a refreshing #smoothie made with #seasonalfruit at @casadelosjugosnaturales
🇵🇦☔️🥰

.
It’s a #freemuseum open Tuesday-Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and it houses #antiques, #originalmanuscripts 📜and even #furniture said to have been used by #noriega

Three things you should know about the Panamanian #tapao :
1️⃣ wheat-flour dough similar to a calzone but #deepfried
2️⃣ tradition from the Chiriquí province, Panama’s #breadbasket
3️⃣ stuffed with cheese, vegetables or in this case at @casavolcan with #charsiu, showing the Chinese influence in Panamanian cooking
