Pati Jinich really opened my eyes to guacamole’s full potential. In the states, a lot of food people have an incredibly rigid idea of what is and is not guac. Pati revealed to me that in Mexico there are no rules with guac. Makes the purists here freaking out look super silly. Guacamole is a mole. And like all moles, there are infinite variations, the only necessary thread being the aguacate.
So what about you? Any food/cooking lessons you’d like to share?



I toyed with that idea - but what happens if I can only remember the name but not the contents when she asks for it again a few weeks later? My scam would be busted. I still like the idea though…
Oh if she’s that inquisitive I wouldn’t risk it. Or keep notes, but that kind of defeats the purpose of getting away with made-up dishes.
