To try the delicious traditional food of Teotitlán del Valle, the land of wool rugs, Miguel visits Carina's kitchen, “Tierra antigua” (ancient land), well known in the area. The first recipe they make is an ancestral food called segueza, which is customary during the festivals of Teotitlán del Valle. While they wait for the stew, Carina tells us that it is important to use a different metate for each ingredient, because in addition to respecting the flavors, each one requires a stone with a different texture. She also tells us that in Teotitlán del Valle it is very normal to hear people speak in Zapotec, and shares some examples of how people greet each other. The food is ready and they go to the table, which is joined by Carina's husband, Pedro. In Teotitlán del Valle it is a tradition to give thanks before each meal and drink mezcal, with which they toast and offer it in Zapotec: “with God's permission.” Follow us on: / canaloncetv / canaloncetv / canaloncetv https://canalonce.mx/
