Word origin
The empanada has its origins in Galicia, Spain, where it was originally a portable and convenient meal for farmers and laborers. Over time, empanadas spread to Latin America and became a popular street food in many countries. The word 'empanada' comes from the Spanish verb 'empanar', which means 'to wrap or coat in bread'.
