Cooking with Reyna Mendoza at her home in Teotitlán de Valle was like a dream come true. We walked to the market and shopped for ingredients. Then we cooked in her outside kitchen.Reyna heating sesame seeds on a very large comal heated by wood.
The ingredients for pipian sauce which are ground by hand on a metate.
Jitomates searing on a comal for roasted tomate salsa.
A wild aguacate which has a very thick skin.
How did you get to cook with Reyna? What was for dinner? Is aguacate the same as avocado? Looks delish!
