Oaxaca: 5-Course Tasting Menu
Did you know the Oaxaca Valley has been inhabited since 11,000 BC? Considered the birthplace of corn and squash, the corn-centric menu demonstrates the versatility of this vital food dating back thousands of years. Each savory dish uses corn distinctly and is complemented by the abundance of ingredients and flavors from this vibrant region of Mexico.
Amuse Bouche - Molete
From the Nahuatl language, meaning “package,” this popular Oaxacan street food dish is corn dough stuffed with chorizo and Oaxaca cheese, drizzled with black beans, and topped with a delicious Xnipec salsa from the nearby Yucatan peninsula.
First Course - Chileatole Verde
Originating in pre-Hispanic Mexico, this soup has a corn masa base with white corn kernels. It is flavored with epazote spice and serrano chili and topped with queso fresco.
