About the Empanada: Empanadas consist of a flaky pastry in a crescent shape with crimped edges filled with meat, cheese, or seafood. Traveling to South America from across the Atlantic, these turnovers had their origins in Moorish influence on Portugal & Spain. (Was its half-moon shape a nod to Islam? Sometimes faith must be concealed in order to be sustained.) Flavored with spices like cumin, cinnamon, & chile, they keep your heart & belly warm. Wear the empanada to remember that you are capable of adapting to, even excelling in, new worlds.
