        "text": "National Pupusa Day celebrates the pupusa, El Salvador’s national dish. A pupusa is a thick, handmade tortilla or flatbread made from corn or rice dough and filled with ingredients such as cheese, beans, pork, or vegetables. It is commonly served with curtido, a cabbage relish, and tomato sauce. The dish’s cultural importance is closely tied to Salvadoran identity and heritage.\nAccounts of the pupusa’s origins differ: both El Salvador and Honduras have been associated with its beginnings, although San Salvador is considered more likely by one account. The dish is also connected to the pre-Columbian Pipil and Quiche peoples of western El Salvador, with cooking instruments found at Joya de Cerén, a site buried by volcanic ash about 2,000 years ago. The pupusa’s history includes early vegetable-filled versions and later varieties featuring ingredients such as pork and cheese.\nIn 2005, the Salvadoran Legislative Assembly declared pupusas the national dish and established the second Sunday in November as National Pupusa Day. The decree was dated April 1, 2005. The date was selected after consideration of El Salvador’s national festivities and November’s corn harvest.",
