Ajiaco is a traditional soup originating from Colombia, particularly popular in the capital city, Bogotá. It is made with a variety of potatoes, typically including papas criollas, papa sabanera, and papa pastusa, which give the dish its unique texture and flavor. The soup is often enriched with chicken and flavored with herbs like guascas, providing a comforting and hearty meal.
In addition to potatoes and chicken, Ajiaco is usually served with toppings such as avocado, capers, and a dollop of cream. This dish is not only a staple in Colombian cuisine but also reflects the country's rich agricultural diversity and culinary traditions.
