About Jamica empanada
Jamica Empanada is a flavorful and vibrant pastry inspired by Latin American cuisine, featuring a unique twist with hibiscus (jamaica) flowers as the star ingredient. The empanada is filled with a blend of sautéed hibiscus flowers, onions, and spices, creating a tangy and slightly sweet filling with a satisfying texture. Typically encased in a golden, flaky pastry shell, the empanada may be baked or fried, depending on preparation style. Hibiscus flowers are a nutrient-rich ingredient low in calories and provide antioxidants that support overall health. However, the nutritional profile of a Jamica Empanada can vary based on cooking method—baked options tend to be lower in fat compared to fried versions. While the pastry contributes carbohydrates and fat, enjoying it in moderation can be part of a balanced diet. Perfect as a snack or appetizer, it offers a delightful fusion of taste and tradition.
