If you’re looking for a unique and memorable way to celebrate a special occasion, why not throw a pupusa-themed party? Whether it's a family gathering, a birthday celebration, or an office lunch, pupusas bring a delicious twist to any event. Here at Pupusería Las Cabañas, we know a thing or two about making a party unforgettable, and we’re here to share our expert catering tips to help you host the perfect pupusa party!
1. Plan Your Pupusa Menu
The key to a great pupusa party is variety! Pupusas come in a range of flavors, so you can offer something for everyone. Here’s how to craft the perfect menu:
Classic Selections: Always include crowd favorites like Revuelta (pork, beans, and cheese) and Queso (cheese) pupusas. These staples are sure to satisfy even the pickiest eaters.
Specialty Flavors: Add a twist by offering some unique combinations like Birria Pupusas or Pupusas with Loroco for guests looking to try something different.
Vegetarian Options: Be mindful of dietary preferences. Pupusas stuffed with beans, squash, or jalapeños are perfect options for vegetarians and vegans.
2. Sides and Beverages to Complement the Pupusas
No pupusa is complete without some tasty sides! Here’s what to consider:
Curtido & Salsa Roja: These traditional accompaniments are a must. The tangy curtido (fermented cabbage slaw) and flavorful salsa roja (tomato sauce) elevate each bite.
Sides: If you want to offer more than just pupusas, consider adding Salvadoran tamales or empanadas to the spread for added variety.
Traditional Drinks: Serve drinks that pair perfectly with pupusas, such as horchata, tamarindo, or maracuya to enhance the Salvadoran experience.
3. Perfect Portions: How Many Pupusas Do You Need?
It’s important to get the quantity right when catering. Here’s a quick guide to help:
For a full meal: Plan for 2-3 pupusas per person, especially if they’re the main dish.
For a light lunch or appetizer: 1-2 pupusas per person should be enough if you're offering other dishes. At Pupusería Las Cabañas, we can help you figure out the perfect amount based on your guest count and event style.
4. Set Up a Pupusa Bar for Interactive Fun
