Dish story

The best recipes are often born at home. Far from cookbooks and professional kitchens, many families create their own dishes that are passed down through generations and become part of their identity.

In Mexico, it is common to find family recipes that combine everyday ingredients in unexpected ways. Many of these dishes remain treasured family traditions and are rarely found in restaurants.

Cutzamala version

This dish holds a special place in our story because it is inspired by a recipe from the founder's mother. The chicken is slowly roasted and served with a sauce made from Coca-Cola, tomatoes and pickled jalapeños. We accompany it with creamy mashed potatoes for a comforting dish full of flavour and family memories.

Main ingredients

Pickled jalapeños are one of Mexico's most popular preserves. Their balance of acidity, heat and freshness makes them a common accompaniment to tacos, sandwiches and traditional stews. They are especially valued for their ability to bring contrast and balance to richer dishes.
