Guanime

(Guanimes)

Guanime is a Puerto Rican dish that can be traced back to pre-Columbian times. It consists of cornmeal masa that is stuffed with beans, seafood, nuts, or meat, and it is then wrapped in corn husks and boiled. Alternatively, guanimes can be prepared in a plain version, without the stuffing.


When guanimes are done, they are unwrapped, then typically served with fish dishes or stews.
