Jankaquipa

When it comes to soups, Jankaquipa is another Bolivian dish that you should try. It was one of the dishes I tried during my La Paz foodie tour. The soup, which is made with corn, onions, and, of course, potatoes, is a popular starter in the Andes.

Jankaquipa, like Kalapurka, falls under the Lagua category. It took us a while to figure out what that meant, but thanks to Daniel's fluency in Spanish, we can now tell you that Laguas are thick soups. We're not surprised they're popular in Bolivia, given how cold it gets at night in the Andes. You might be fine during the day, but once the sun goes down, you'll be freezing.

In the winter, most locals will eat Jankaquipa. If, on the other hand, you're always cold, you should get some Jankaquipa at any time of year to warm you up!
