Tocosh is an Andean product obtained from the fermentation of native potatoes for six to twelve months and is valued for its traditional consumption as mazamorra (a Peruvian dessert). The Incas considered potatoes to be a divine gift from their Apus (Gods), and in the preparation process, another deity, the river, was involved. Selected potatoes were placed in pits near the river, pressed with stones, and allowed to be watered by the river for months. The water transformed the potatoes into a powerful natural antibiotic with probiotic characteristics. After sun-drying, it was traditionally used to prepare sweets, broths, and stews.

.

Today, Tocosh is still used as a medicinal plant by rural communities in the Peruvian Andes. It is especially used for stomach ulcers, gastritis, bronchial problems, and to restore intestinal flora. In its natural form, Tocosh has a strong smell and taste, but as a flour, it has a minimal odor. It is also used to heal wounds. This natural probiotic and antibiotic is accepted by everyone without known contraindications.

Tocosh is valued not only for its cultural and gastronomic significance but also for its medicinal properties passed down through generations.
