Hallacas is a very popular dish in Venezuela and other parts of South and Central America. Curacao, Aruba and Bonaire are located close to Venezuela, and the islands picked up this traditional dish and made it part of their own tradition. The Venezuelan version is so much liked, that the islands did not make any changes to it. It is very popular around the holidays, especially Christmas. Preparation of the dish is a very time consuming process. So make them in large quantities. I can garantee you, none will go to waste. Enjoy
