Tlacolula Market | Oaxaca, Mexico. People travel to Oaxaca from all over Mexico (and the world) specifically to eat. Tlacolula Market, a traditional Sunday market located 45 minutes away from Oaxaca’s city center, has some of the best Mexican cuisine and street food in the area. • Join us for a market tour in a part of the world where food culture runs deep. Restaurants and street stalls in Oaxaca are often family affairs, and many have been around for generations. Ancient indigenous culinary tradition — namely from the Zapotecs and Mixtecs — is a major influence in Oaxacan food. • Here is a list of what we ate and where: • 1. Traditional Oaxacan cheese, or quesillo — a white, semihard cheese similar to mozzarella. • 2. Chicharrón — fried pork rind, pork belly, and other parts of the pig. A cornerstone of Mexican cuisine! At Tlacolula, vendors sell chicharrón in massive, tasty sheets. The piece we purchased was from the head of the pig, and included ear, nose, and cheek. Yum! • 3. Barbacoa — Barbacoa is a stewed meat dish traditionally eaten on Sundays in Mexico, and there is a whole section of Tlacolula Market that is dedicated to the delicacy. We ate at Barbacoa Juanita, a stall that has been in the market for over 100 years, passed down in the same family generation after generation — four so far! • 4. Oaxacan chocolate — usually used for drinking chocolate! • 5. Pan de Cazuela — Pan de cazuela, or casserole bread, is baked in a wood oven with chocolate and raisins. It tastes like a lightly sweet wheat bread with a hint of cinnamon. • 6. Bonuelos — A Mexican fried dough fritter • 7. Tejate — Tejate is a Oaxacan drink from pre-Hispanic times made from cornflower and cacao. It is served with sugar syrup and tastes like lightly sweet, watered-down chocolate milk. • https://www.epidemicsound.com/referra...
