Analyze the Spanish statement

Using our Reading Comprehension skills, let's translate the sentence: "Yo quiero ordenar los chiles rellenos y el pepián." This translates to: "I want to order the stuffed chiles and the pepián."

Identify the cultural dish

Now we connect this to Spanish Culture and Spanish Cuisine. While chiles rellenos are popular in several Latin American countries, pepián is a very specific, traditional meat stew.

Determine the country of origin

Pepián is widely recognized as one of the national dishes of Guatemala. It is a rich, spiced recado (sauce) made from roasted seeds, chiles, and spices, typically served with chicken or beef. Therefore, ordering pepián places the speaker in Guatemala.
