Hot pocket history
Yes, this is our rendition of Guam’s red-colored empanadas.
These turnover pies, which can come in with an assortment of fillings
throughout Latin America and the Caribbean, originated in Spain and
Portugal. Look for these at local “mom and pop” stores and island gas
stations in Guam. Remember that the island was a Spanish colony for over
two centuries. This favorite comes traditionally stuffed with a tasty
filling of corn meal, cream of rice, and chicken pieces. Meanwhile, the
chopped onion, garlic, and annatto flavors make for a savory meat pie.
Guamanians love ‘em.
