From traditional to contemporary we explore the ancient foods that formed the foundation of Mesoamerica. In Oaxaca we travel to villages to make tamales and tlayudas and we explore the varied world of moles. In Puebla, we learn about another regional sauce called pipian, and in Mexico City we visit extraordinary chefs who show us contemporary expressions of these early foods.
