Perla Riguas Salvadorenas de Elote con Loroco y Queso

Pack size

Product Name: Riguas de Elote con Loroco (Corn Cakes with Loroco & Cheese)
Size: 12 oz (or listed in some cases as 15 oz) 

Description:
These are authentic Salvadoran-style corn cakes made from fresh sweet corn (elote), blended into masa and infused with both creamy cheese and aromatic loroco (a Central American flower used for its unique flavor). The result is a rich, savory treat with a hint of floral-herbaceous top note from the loroco.

Texture & Flavor:

  • Smooth and slightly dense from the corn masa, but tender when heated.

  • Cheese provides a creamy, mild savory base.

  • Loroco adds a distinctive, slightly floral and savory nuance — giving the product a traditional regional twist.

  • Best enjoyed warmed (e.g., on a griddle or skillet) so the cheese softens and the flavor bursts.
