Savory and sweet with pops of briny olives and crunchy almonds,
picadillo is a Cuban beef and tomato dish that’s a delight to eat.
Krysten Chambrot, associate editor of New York Times Cooking, said her
mom filled her freezer with it when she was in college. "I ate it for
months and was so grateful," she wrote."It’s literally the most cozy
thing in the world to me."
