Epazote

Virtual Brunch
Sunday, May 9

Guest Chef Jodi Ettenberg

While Cinco de Mayo is celebrated in much of the United States, it is not a national holiday in Mexico. The day commemorates Mexico’s victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War on May 5, 1862. In Mexico, it’s a fairly minor holiday, celebrated within the state of Puebla. In the US, it has evolved into a general celebration of Mexican culture. Sticking true to its roots, this brunch menu focuses on food from Puebla itself.

¡Mains!

Mole poblano with eggs: Puebla’s version of mole features chocolate as its star, alongside chilies, plantains, and a variety of seeds, spiced with cinnamon, anise, and cloves. A perfect accompaniment to eggs over easy.

Pelonas: A satisfying brunch sandwich. The word pelonas is slang for being bald, because its sister sandwich “cemitas” has bread with sesame seeds. Pelonas consist of a bun that is cut in half then lightly fried before spreading bean paste on the bun, then filling it with shredded lettuce, shredded meat (or cheese), avocado, chipotle salsa, and a final dab of cream.

Chiles en nogada: A poblano chili pepper, stuffed with picadillo (a mix of veggies, meat, and dried fruit), then covered in a creamy walnut sauce and garnished with pomegranate seeds and parsley. (It’s a patriotic dish, since it has the colours of the Mexican flag: red, white, and green!)

¡Sides!

Rajas poblanas: Strips of poblano chilies grilled and served with kernels of corn and Mexican cream (crema). Topped with fresh strings of quesillo cheese.

Chalupas: Lightly fried round corn tortillas, topped with spicy salsa (your choice of red or green), chopped onions, shredded chicken or tofu, and served with a drizzle of guacamole and crema, and finally a tangle of cheese.

Molotes: satisfying masa flour snack filled with potatoes, cheese, or whatever is leftover in the kitchen. It’s made from pressing a filling into a small corn masa dough disc that is folded over, sealed up into a small football shape that fits in your palm, then deep fried or air fried. Topped with salsa and crema.

¡Drink!

Champurrado: A thick corn drink made with masa, chocolate and milk. Flavoured with your choice of cinnamon, anise, vanilla, or all of the above. Topped with orange zest and ground walnuts.

Cucumber Mezcal Margarita: It’s 5 o’clock somewhere. Cucumber, limes, Mezcal, and agave or simple syrup. Glasses rimmed with your choice of chili powder or smoked paprika.

¡Dessert!

SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!
