…said EVERYONE, EVERY time Lilian, wife of Rev. Sergio Fritzler, brought her famous chipas to any kind of team potluck or party, from when I arrived on the field 2+ years ago (and probably before) until Thursday.
If you know me at all, you know I’m a doer. Fed up with all talk and no action, I hopped on WhatsApp and coordinated with Lilian to host a long overdue tarde de chipas Dominican ladies’ night. We enjoyed each others’ company and yummy munchies and FINALLY learned the secret to the cheesy, gluten-free (!), bite-sized Paraguayan delicacy we’ve all come to love. We joked that everybody was going to bring a batch to this coming Tuesday’s all-team event, but something tells me that, even though Lilian may have leaked her recipe, her reputation as the chipa queen is safe.
Pro tip: Always grate cheese under a fan if you live in the tropics or you’ll work up a sweat!
They’re good the same day, nestled under a tea towel in a basket, but they’re amaaaaaazing hot out of the oven: crisp on the outside, ooey gooey on the inside.
Love these sisters in Christ and everything they – sometimes literally – bring to the table.
Until next time, blessings!
