    Don't let Jorge's (the mole guy's) rustic, humble appearance fool you: he's worked with Enrique Olvera at Mexico City's Pujol -- currently ranked #5 on the list of the World's Top 50 greatest restaurants. His restaurant "Alfonsina" is named for his grandmother.

    As an American who’s visited most Latin American countries I gotta say Peru and Mexico are definitely up there on the top of best cuisines but if I have to give it to one country it would be Mexico. Their food culture is definitely complex and goes back many generations to pre historic times which I believe Peru’s cuisine has been infused and interrupted by other cultures when they had their wave of Asian immigrants. Definitely both countries put Latin America’s food in the map with the top others. 👌

    Gordon just received the best advice ever. Relax your mood when cooking because you transfer that to the food.

    Gordon missed an opportunity when he called the tool used to grind the cacao a 50 year old tool. It may be that age within this family, but the “metate” (meh-tah-teh) goes back to pre-Colombian / Mesoamerican civilizations. It is made of volcanic rock similar to the Mexican mortar & pestle (molcahete - Mohl-cah-heh-teh) used to make salsas. It dates back to somewhere between 5000 - 3000 BCE and is also used to grind corn which was domesticated in Mexico 8,000 years ago. A little history for you… it’s important we understand Mexico’s incredibly long and sophisticated agricultural history and the millennia of knowledge, skill and scientific discovery behind its culture and cuisine. ❤

Its truly hilarious to hear him admit that he struggles with his own issues, like listening & not talking, lol. Basic Molè is very time consuming & not difficult. Of course we, at least most in the City do not use a Metate. We may use our Molcajete, however we do not use as before. Anywho, example, my Mole is Rojo/red & made half scratch. Actually, when I make a huge batch of fresh Enchilada Salsa/Sauce, I am able to make Molè from that. So for those of you atad worried that its difficult, nope, not the Basic delish Molè. Definitely ALOT of ingredients & tike consuming. IF you love cooking, you'll enjoy it. I listen to 🎶 in Español while I cook. I hope this is encouraging.
