Mexican Table Autumn 2009 with Patricia Jinich
December 10, 2009 @ 6:30pm México Rediscovered: Posadas in Yucatán Haciendas (Registration deadline December 3)
The cuisine from Yucatan differs from the rest of the country. The Mayas, who inhabit the region, have had a unique indigenous cuisine to start with. In Colonial times, the Maya cuisine mixed with that of the European settlers, creating the traditional Yucatecan food. It is absolutely scrumptious! It was mainly in the kitchens of the Haciendas, which were main production centers and grandiose households, where this culinary intermarriage blossomed. These days, some Haciendas have been turned into luxurious hotels with restaurants that serve the loved traditional dishes, as well as some new spins. Join us for a Rediscovery of the Yucatan Haciendas. Enjoy an entertaining demo and a full menu of Yucatan cusine and music. After class, you will leave with a packet of recipes and some ingredients to recreate some of these dishes in your own kitchen.

When I finally made it to one of her classes...”
