The kids and I took a cooking class at their Spanish language school last week. The teacher spoke very slowly as he taught us how to make Mote Pillo, which is the large corn they have here cut off the cob cooked with oil, green onion, egg and achiote. You eat it with picadita, a spicy salsa that has red onion, cilantro, oil, spicy red pepper and lime.
Ethan did an awesome job of cooking it for us a few days later. He is sporting goggles as his solution to the red onions being especially strong here.
