Cooking with Bricia’s Guelaguetza Mole

September 3, 2021 Filed Under: Recipes, Upcoming Box

We were thrilled to see our friend Bricia Lopez (co-owner of Guelaguetza, author of Oaxaca, and cofounder of RegardingHer) in our new favorite family Netflix series Waffles + Mochi. In episode two, the adorable pair of puppets visit her and learn what mole is, where it comes from, and Bricia shows them all the ingredients are going to used to make the dish: chile guajillos, oregano, thyme, sesame seeds, cloves, allspice, cinnamon, almonds, garlic, raisins, onions and breadcrumbs. She even teaches them how to use a molcajete to grind things up, and invites them to share a meal around the dining room table with family.

Next weekend, enjoy the delicious experience of cooking with Guelaguetza mole and more!

“Mole is the essence of Oaxaca. The word triggers so many emotions for me: my memories, my grandma; my family…It’s a dish that sings community and it’s a dish that makes me proud of being Oaxacan because of all the ingredients in it that Mexico gave to the world: chocolate, chiles, corn, and tomatoes.” – excerpt from Oaxaca: Home Cooking From The Heart of Mexico by Bricia Lopez and the family behind LA’s Guelaquetza with Javier Cabral.
