In reply to Gladys. En mi experiencia, no es posible muchas horas - un poco zumo de lima o limon por la palta es mejor, y si hace la parte mas verde afuera, es mejor, pero no perfecto por mucho tiempo. (Y lo siento si mi espanol no es totalmente correcto!)

In reply to Roxxx. Thanks for letting me know - I did wonder if there was a Quechua link as well but wasn't quite able to track it down, especially with the other aspects of the background and name seeming to fit. But given the potatoes origins in the Andes, makes sense!

Hi Caroline, Causa is not Spanish, it derives from the Quechua word Kausaq, it was the name that the incas gave to the potato and means "what sustains life"

In reply to Stacy. Thanks , I love learning about the history too, and yes, definitely feels more than the humble ingredients, I think!

Your little causas are perfect. I have a crab one on my blog, and love the flavors of the potatoes mixed with the aji! Way to improvise with the foil!

This is a dish that is definitely more than the sum of its parts! So pretty and delicious. Thanks for the history lesson as well, Caroline. I love learning about recipes from other cultures.
