About
We'll work in groups to tackle one of the more complex dishes in Mexican gastronomy, mole coloradito, which features more than 25 ingredients. Through this process, you'll learn about the cooking techniques that go into this iconic dish and how they can be applied to make nearly any Mexican mole.
Mole as a food category tells an incredibly rich, complicated, and delicious story about Mexican gastronomy over many centuries, and the social, cultural, and political influences that went into making it known as one of Mexico’s most recognizable dishes.
Together we'll break down this complex dish into easily understandable steps.
On the menu:
- Mole coloradito alongside braised chicken.
- Corn tortillas you've shaped and cooked, so you can sop up every last drop of mole on your plate!
- Arroz rojo and frijoles de olla prepared by your instructor ahead of time, so can have the traditional side dishes that make mole a complete meal.
