Además, se llevó a cabo 6 entrevistas a Cocineras tradicionales y Expertos Gastrónomos, con la finalidad documentar los saberes empíricos y tener una visión auténtica y detallada de las técnicas culinarias. Los resultados de las encuestas y entrevistas, revelaron que el 99% de los encuestados ha consumido envueltos de sal o dulces; en su mayoría se encuentra entre rango de edad de 20 a 30 años. Además, se destaca que el 51% los consumo rara vez y es evidente el poco conocimiento sobre la elaboración correcta de los envueltos con el 62%. Los chefs ecuatorianos reconocen que los envueltos no necesitan innovación porque de por sí, tienen una presentación única que deberían estar presente en restaurantes gourmet; siendo importante potenciar su consumo y elaboración. En conclusión, esta investigación que los envueltos ecuatorianos son símbolos vivos de la identidad culinaria del país y deben ser protegidos como un valioso patrimonio intangible. Para garantizar su preservación, es imperativo documentar los conocimientos empíricos de las cocineras ecuatorianas, quienes son las guardias del saber ancestral que ha sido transmitido de generación en generación. Esto causará un impacto positivo a los futuros gastrónomos para garantizar la preservación de los saberes culinarios tradicionales y fomentar su elaboración para aumentar su consumo.
