    Hi Guys, I was wondering has anybody ever made Arepas in Ireland ? If so what brand of corn flour, corn meal, polenta or pre cooked white corn meal did you use to make them ?

    Any response appreciated

    My girlfriend is originally from Colombia and introduced me to them, they're frickin delicious! The brand we use, and I think it's the main one, is 'PAN'. It comes in a yellow or an orange bag, she prefers the yellow (not sure why). There was an ethnic food store just off abbey street, but that's closed now :/http://www.asiamarket.ie apparently sells it, and it's on Drury Street. She's actually going to check it out today to see if they have any in stock

    Yeah she picked up a yellow pack in an ethnic store on Moore street today. She said most packs were actually out of date though so just something to check ðŸ‘

    Could you ask her is there any difference between the yellow and orange packs ? Like is it easier to cook with the yellow pack than orange pack ?

    No difference in cooking... she said it just tastes slightly different. There must be some difference though, just not sure what. If they hadn't got the yellow pack then she would have just bought the orange one so they cant be that different!
