Cachapa is a sweet corn pancake that is a popular street food in Venezuela. It is made by blending fresh corn kernels with cornmeal, sugar, and salt to create a thick batter. The batter is then cooked on a griddle until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside. Cachapas are typically served with cheese, butter, or a combination of both. The combination of the sweet corn pancake and the savory cheese or butter creates a delicious contrast of flavors. Cachapas are a beloved Venezuelan treat that can be enjoyed as a snack or a light meal.
