According to an ancient Oaxacan legend, Mayahuel, the Goddess of Agave and Fertility, had fallen in love with a mortal and given birth to 400 rabbits, each representing a stage of intoxication. As punishment for her love for a mortal, the gods darkened the sky over the land of Oaxaca.

The bravest of the rabbits, known as The Renegade, tirelessly climbed the highest mountains, traversed the desert, and followed the rivers, looking everywhere in the seemingly endless stormy night until it found the fire hiding in the deepest cavern. Jumping into the fire, the rabbit transformed into Alebrije, the Spirit.

Back under the starry sky, he stroked an agave with the fire. The fire fermented the heart of the plant into Pulque, the beverage that would become Mezcal. This is why Mezcal is now known as "the goddess' gift."

As a gesture of respect to the Oaxacan people, Goddess Mayahuel covered the hills with an extensive variety of Agaves, capturing in their hearts all the different flavors she could imagine.

To this day, the Spirit Alebrije is still running across the land, ensuring the fire still consumes the agaves to produce the best Mezcal.

Pommes Pavé is an elegant potato recipe; one of my favorites! Layers of thinly sliced potato are baked with seasoned cream and then compressed overnight in the fridge to form a loaf. This loaf is cut into small rectangles and seared until golden.

Food trucks have a story behind them, which is just as important as the food they serve. They are the epitome of culinary innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. I had the lucky opportunity to check out "Lily's Cocina" in Denver last month. Owners Sergio and Priscilla have been operating their food truck since 2016. They make an awesome Chorizo Cheeseburger!

I was around twelve when I first encountered "Tunas" (aka cactus apples; prickly pears). My family had just moved from northern Maine to Guanajuato, Mexico. I loved exploring the open markets and discovering unimagined foods and cooking techniques. Now, every September I harvest tunas from our garden to make Prickly Pear Simple Syrup...most of which ends up in our Neo-Picante Margaritas!
