Hallulla is a type of bread popular in some Latin American countries. This type of round baked bread is particularly popular in Chile, where it is used to make sandwiches. Bolivia and other Latin American countries also use this type of bread.
Hallulla is usually made from basic ingredients. The main ingredients are flour and water, along with things like milk and butter. Salt and some yeast ingredient can also be added.
An interesting part of the background to this meal is the way the hallulla is made. Traditionally, bread was made by hand. Cooks today often use multiple machines to help with their production.
A common way to make hallulla is to initially roll out the dough with an automatic roller. An alternative is to place the dough on the table and stretch it out with a rolling pin. In either case, the result should be a long, wide, thin, flat sheet of dough.
When working with the entire sheet of dough, cooks will often stamp circular patterns into the dough with some type of cutting tool. Some of the most experienced cooks can stamp these pieces extremely quickly, at an attractive rate, as part of an advanced display for bakeries where the public may be present. These circular cutouts are placed in greased molds.
To cook hallulla, workers place these containers in ovens or heating conveyors. Many recipes call for this dish to cook in about 10 minutes. Automated systems can also be used to make bread, where an automatic conveyor can cut the circular pieces and cook the dough according to preset automatic times and temperatures.
A common type of sandwich made with hallulla is called a chacarero or “farmer’s sandwich.” These types of sandwiches can include meat or vegetarian ingredients. Cheese and chili sauce are usually added. Lettuce, tomatoes, and other greens are common additions. Various sauces can be used to flavor the sandwich. These can be served whole or cut in half; Chacareros are compact and easy to eat, making them a popular way to use this type of bread.
In addition to chacareros, other types of sandwiches can also use hallulla. Some restaurants may use this to serve breakfast sandwiches. Elsewhere, hallulla bread is an authentic introduction to world cuisine. Cooks around the world are familiar with it, as one of the many ethnic varieties of bread around the world.
