Tocosh Capsules
Description+
Tocosh Capsules is a food product obtained through an Andean conservation technique that has nutritional and therapeutic properties. The word tocosh derives from the Quechua word togosh, meaning wrinkled and fermented.
It is the result of bacterial fermentation of Andean products such as potato, corn, olluco or arracacha, stored in wells built in the ground, wrapped in straw or ‘ichu’ and mechanically pressed with stones under a stream of water from a spring. This treatment gives the products nutritional and therapeutic properties that could be a natural alternative to palliate, and prevent some diseases.
