So today was dedicated to what was always slated to be one of the highlights of the trip: a Mole Negro lesson from one of Teotitlan’ top Cocinera Tradicionales: Carina Santiago. I got exactly what I came for: a much clearer idea of what, exactly, it means to respect and honor ingredients in the context of Mole.
Pork Red Posole after a day of touring Oaxaca and environs: Monte Alban, the Petrified Waterfalls and a Mezcal tour.

Tostada of Smoked Eggplant, Mushrooms and Fresh Herbs. This dish was inspired by one I loved at a restaurant dinner she put on in conjunction with @24.suns. Their collaboration was so seamless that I could not tell you who came up with the dish in question (https://www.instagram.com/p/CaR_eVclB0I/). I was in love with those flavors and wanted to look for ways to play with them in a Mexican idiom.
