Really good recipe, very similar to the one we used to have back home (Venezuela) not quite the same, but very close. Thank... you so much for sharing this recipe, brought me so many memories.... I could not live without Guasacaca.. I'll make sure to keep this recipe on a safe place to share with generations to come, specially my children that way they can have a little taste of my culture. Thanks again!!!!Read more

Very nice
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Almost exactly as I remember it when I lived in Venezuela. Not exactly, but very close. I have been looking for a recipe... for years but my spelling was so far off I never got any/many hits. I knew the ones that called for ripe tomatos wasn't it! Thanks for sharing this excellent South American condiment.Read more
