Cuenta la historia que el ají dulce venezolano, ese sabroso y aromático insumo infaltable en las comidas de mi país, llegó vía Margarita, y de allí conquistó los paladares criollos, dando un toque de identidad venezolana a nuestros platos, a pesar de ser en un inmigrante, al parecer procedente de las faldas el lado oriental de la Cordillera Andina, zonas que hoy conforman Ecuador, Perú y Bolivia. No hay guiso, sofrito, caraota, hervido o arroz que no lo lleve, y su aporte nos garantiza un típico sabor que, estemos donde estemos, nos traslada a nuestros hogares, a la cocina de mamá o de abuela. Gracias a mi buena amiga María Ysabel @4lmagitana, quien adentrada en el mundo del contrabando ajiaco, tuvo a bien compartir conmigo este sagrado ingrediente. Por cierto, la segunda foto es de su autoría. ... The story goes that the Venezuelan sweet pepper, that tasty and aromatic essential ingredient in the meals of my country, arrived through the island of Margarita, and from there conquered the Creole palates, giving a touch of Venezuelan identity to our dishes, to Despite being an immigrant, apparently from the foothills of the eastern side of the Andean Cordillera, areas that today make up Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. Every stew, stir-fry, bean, soup or rice must and must have that chili pepper, and its contribution guarantees us a typical flavor that, wherever we are, takes us to our homes, to our mother's or grandmother's kitchen. Thanks to my good friend María Ysabel, who entered the world of ajiaco smuggling, she was kind enough to share this sacred ingredient with me. By the way, the second photo is his own. ... #aji #ajidulce #ajivenezolano #ajicriollo #pepper #sweetpepper #chilipepper #chile #chili #chilli #pimientopequeño #comida #food #comidavenezolana #venezuelafood #fruto #fruit #saboresvenezolanos #venezuelaflavors #barcelona #catalunya #cataluña #españa #spain (en Barcelona, Spain) https://www.instagram.com/p/CU-16ASouG7/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today Tania told me something along the lines of: ‘Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that I would be growing Puerto Rican crops here in Philadelphia.’ We had just gathered these Gandul seeds at her house, and she added them to a small bag of Recao leaves I brought from our farm. Tania and her partner Grimaldi have been apprenticing with Truelove Seeds this year, and it has been so wonderful to get to know them and build community with them (and their ancestral plants). At their garden, @grumblethorpehistoric, they grow Aji Dulce, the pepper that Tania combines with a Recao leaves and a few other ingredients for making Sofrito. This first photo is Tania with her Ajies. The second is Recao at our farm. The third is the bag of Recao and Gandules. The fourth is a preview of the Aji Dulce page of our 2021 Seed Keeping calendar, which you can find at the link in our bio. It’s a photo of Tania and Grimaldi’s first ever Aji Dulce harvest :) Tania María Ríos Marrero is an herbal medicine maker, sporadic writer, aspiring farmer, and librarian-in-training. Thank you Tania for sharing your love for these plants with us via your seed keeping practice. @nochecita_ #seedkeeping #seedsaving #ajidulce #gandules #recao #sofrito #culantro #pigeonpeas https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBpZyfg_r2/?igshid=1dlqyvtf8ob5t

Tania and Grimaldi are growing the Aji Dulce for our seed catalog this year! Here they are with the Ajis, some extra Gandules, and a couple Parchas, and of course a machete and a Puerto Rican flag to really bring it all home. These plants are destined for their gardens at Grumblethorpe Historic House in our shared neighborhood of Germantown, Philadelphia! So excited to be working with them as seed keepers growing their beloved crops! Grateful to @lex_boooogie for the introduction! Grateful to @soulfirefarm for being our previous Aji Dulce grower (and that they are still stewarding so many of their important crops for their community and for our catalog), and to @enyfarms and @sherylldurrant for connecting us to the Northern Adapted Pigeon Peas (aka Gandules) we now grow and share, and to Nate of @experimentalfarmnetwork for sharing the amazing Passion fruits (aka Parcha) that spawned our vigorous vines, which are so ambitious that we can save seeds AND dig up the sprawling roots and vines for others. @nochecita_ @grimaldiworks @grumblethorpehistoric #seedkeeping #ajidulce #gandules #parcha https://www.instagram.com/p/CAjIZpRAS1x/?igshid=1fp35lxund4lb
