4 Oaxacan Moles: A Cooking Class with a Traditional Cocinera

In our Oaxacan Moles Class, you will have the opportunity to discover together with Chef Carrizosa how this culinary tradition has evolved in Oaxaca, from pre-Hispanic techniques to dishes with viceregal influences that are still preserved.

You will learn how to prepare Green and Yellow moles, made with endemic chilies and ancestral techniques; as well as the Almendrado and Rojo moles, dishes inherited from the miscegenation with ingredients brought from the Old World and Asia.
