Chasing a Plate is in Teotitlan, Oaxaca, Mexico! And we're experiencing a Oaxaca cooking class!
Today we join Reyna Mendoza at her cooking school El Sabor Zapoteco in Teotitlan, a small Zapotec town outside of Oaxaca to learn how to cook some traditional Zapotecan dishes.
At Teotitlan market, we pick up some ingredients for a soup, a mole, a dessert and a cactus dish. Teotitlan is a Zapotec town outside of Oaxaca. The Zapotec people are the largest indigenous group in Oaxaca so we are cooking Zapotecan food today.
You always start with dessert before your main meal so we had hot chocolate and the traditional way is to make the hot chocolate with water. We had some Mexican sweet breads which we dipped into the hot chocolate, it was delicious.
Time to cook! We roast corn on the comal and grind corn and chillis on the metate. Beyond learning to cook, look where we're learning to cook, it's just beautiful, these grounds are really authentic. It's really, really nice.
After most of the prep and cooking is done we have have a menu of sageza which is like a mole, Oaxaca is known for having 7 famous moles but Reyna says in fact there's like a hundred, so this is just a type of mole that we're having. We're also having a soup and it's got lots of herbs and squash blossom and chicken in it, or chicken stock and then we're having some nopales or cactus in a chilli sauce with fresh cheese sprinkled on top and then we have our gorgeous desserts to finish and we spot some mezcal as well.
What an amazing day learning how to cook traditional Mexican food at a Oxaca cooking class with El Sabor Zapoteco i Teotilan.
We hope we've inspired you to eat and explore like a traveler, not a tourist.
