Pati's Mexican Table

Ode To The Egg

Pati arrives in Motul, a town in the history books for Yucatan's once thriving henequen industry and for the egg dish Huevos Motulenos. Pati meets Dona Evelia, who put Motul back on the map with her world-famous recipe. She also experiences the legacy of henequen at Hacienda Tamchen and encounters another egg dish in the kitchen, where chef Julio Dominguez makes Abuela's Buttoned Eggs. Recipes in Pati's Kitchen: Motuleno Eggs; Habanero Table Salsa; Eggs Scramble with Chaya and Scallions; Panque de Queso
