To this day, Bolivian cuisine is not popular with tourists as well as around the world. Contrary to the preconceived notions of many people (meat-centric, bland, unhygienic), the food in Bolivia is diverse and satisfying and an essential and unique part of the culture.

With a minimal number of Bolivian cookbooks on the market, we have searched hard to list these 4 best Bolivian cookbooks for you to enjoy.
