My name is Hipatia Lopez, and I’m the creator of the “Empanada Fork” that will help you easily follow my empanada recipe below!
During the Thanksgiving holiday season of 2010, my husband Henry, the family chef, and I were preparing 100 empanadas, which I had to seal one by one! As I did my duty, which seemed to drag on forever, my thumb started to hurt. Then a thought occurred to me, “I wonder whether there is a utensil I can use to seal the empanadas?” That thought sparked an invention.
