Resumen
Colombian author Tomás Carrasquilla worked in,
besides showing several aspects of Antioquian daily
life, describing the food and beverages that were most
common in his time. He was first classified as a “costumbrista”, under a
pejorative consideration and taken as a province
writer, Carrasquilla was claimed an important author
by Kurt Levy, in the ninety fifties, in his PhD thesis
written in Canada. This work about Carrasquilla, who
was born in Santo Domingo, Antioquia, was translated
into Spanish in 1958.
Carrasquilla has several references to the food and
the beverages used in Antioquia, fact that allows the
conclusion that he was a fan of regional gastronomy.
His texts show that he loved chocolate, arepas (corn
cakes) stuffed pork, beans and bacon, chorizos
(sausages), morcilla (pork intestine filled with blood,
rice and spices), Christmas food, candies and, in general,
all of the cultural expressions related to
gastronomy.
