Sampling iconic dishes that represent the evolution and diversity of Mexican cooking in the US (Tex-Mex combo platter, anyone?), I cross the country for the best in Mex-American cuisine, from Los Angeles Taco Truck Style Tacos Acorazados to Modern Mexican dishes a la New York.

Asian demographic influence has a long and storied past in Mexico: Filipinos came through the Pacific trade on huge Galleons, Chinese communities worked to build Mexican railroads, and Japanese settlers found work on coffee plantations. Mexico’s culinary heritage is no stranger to this influence—dishes have benefited from their steaming, drying and salting techniques, as well as the spices. Join me as I explore the heritage of Asian cuisine in Mexico through dishes like Dried Shrimp Soup, Green Beans with Salted Peanuts and Chile de Arbol, Mexican-style Mongolian Beef, Spicy Tofu, and Sticky Rice Playero.

Les Dames d’Escoffier is having their eighth salute to Women in Gastronomy. The symposium includes speakers, hands on cooking classes and a culinary expo, amongst other activities.
I will be joining fellow Dames that day as an attendee, but I will also be teaching a hands-on participation cooking class.
It will be called Mexican Cooking: Limitless Possibilities of the Avocado. It will run from 2:40 PM to 3:50 PM. I look forward to sharing recipes as well as my ways with this amazing fruit. I am thankful for the assistance of Judy Rusignuolo, First Vice President of Les Dames D.C.

In December, festivities in Mexico usually include Piñatas, Pozole and Ponche. You will learn the history behind the piñata tradition while savoring two of the most popular versions of Pozole throughout Mexico: Green from Guerrero and Red from Jalisco. A whole meal on a plate, Pozole is one of Mexico’s most well-known and loved dishes. Accompanying dessert will be a mug of sweet Ponche, a warm and delicious concoction made with sugar cane sticks and both fresh and dried fruits.
