What are Argentine empanadas?
Argentine empanadas are delicious baked turnover filled with a variety of ingredients, such as meats, cheeses, and vegetables. They are a staple of Argentine cuisine, often enjoyed during family gatherings and celebrations. They can also be enjoyed as an appetizer, a light snack or part of your family dinner.
How are your empanadas made?
My empanadas are made to order using traditional family recipes. I use high-quality ingredients to ensure each empanada is fresh and flavorful, reflecting the authentic taste of my family recipes. The fillings are cooked first and then baked in the empanadas.
Can I customize my empanada order?
Traditional beef empanadas are made with diced hard-boiled eggs in the filling. The empanadas are also baked with an egg wash to ensure a golden crust. You may choose to have the diced egg and/or egg wash omitted. You may choose all of one variety or you can choose a combo of varieties.
Do you offer delivery or pickup options?
I offer both delivery and pickup options for your convenience. You can choose to have your empanadas delivered to your doorstep or pick them up at an agreed upon location. Please refer to the order form for delivery options and restrictions.
What is the best way to reheat empanadas?
The best way to reheat empanadas is to place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes. This will help maintain their crispiness while warming the filling thoroughly. Heating in a microwave is not recommended as they will become soggy.

My Story:
Both of my parents were raised in Argentina as well as many of my aunts, uncles and cousins. Empanadas were served at many of our family gatherings and celebrations. They were always cooked with love and I always looked forward to them. My family recipes were passed down to me and I have made them for family and friends to enjoy. Cocina Mia was born from this love of cooking for others and sharing a part of my culture and heritage.
