El escabeche de guineo lo aprendí yo solita porque tenía deseo, yo veía que otras gentes hacían y yo decía, “Yo tengo que aprender.” So, miraba todo lo que ellos le ponían al guineo. Y yo digo: “Lo más simple es el guineo que lo pones a hervir.” Y quien me lo pide mucho es mi hermana porque ella no lo sabe hacer, no le queda como el mío.

I learned the “guineos en escabeche” on my own because I wanted to learn, I saw what other people were doing and I said, “I have to learn.” So, I carefully observed everything they would use. I say: “The simplest thing is the plantain that you put to boil.” And the one who asks me a lot to make it, is my sister because she doesn’t know how to do it, it doesn’t taste as good as mine.
