Arepa Yuca is a gluten-free, traditional Latin American food made primarily from yuca (cassava) flour, a starchy root vegetable native to South America. Originating in regions like Venezuela and Colombia, it is a variation of the classic arepa, offering a distinct, slightly chewy texture and mildly sweet flavor. Typically shaped into patties and grilled, baked, or fried, Arepa Yuca serves as a versatile base for toppings or fillings like cheese, meats, or vegetables. Cassava flour is rich in carbohydrates, providing a quick energy source, and is naturally free of gluten, making it suitable for those with gluten intolerance. However, it is relatively low in protein and fiber compared to other flours, and frying can increase its calorie and fat content. Balanced with nutrient-rich toppings, Arepa Yuca can be a satisfying and nourishing option within a wholesome diet.
