Built on corn

Venezuelan cooking is built on corn, not wheat. Arepas, empanadas, hallacas and bowls are gluten-free by tradition. At Aguacate we also keep a dedicated fryer for gluten-free items so we minimize cross-contamination at the fryer as much as possible. The few dishes with wheat, like our Tequeños, are clearly labeled.
