Founded in 1594, Mocorito is a quiet, colorful colonial town known for one of Sinaloa’s most beloved recipes: a slow-simmered pork dish called chilorio. On this episode, Pati visits the home of Victoria Gonzalez, a cook known for having one of the best chilorio recipes in town.
Then Pati goes with Victoria to visit her sister, Fabiola, who just happens to live right down the street and specialize in another Sinaloan classic, jamoncillo — a soft, sweet candy that is made only of sugar and milk.
Back in her kitchen, Pati perfects her own version of chilorio and dresses up a classic local cookie with sugar crystals and dulce de leche.
Recipes: Sinaloa Style Chilorio, Sopitas con Huevo y Chilorio, Chilorio Sincronizadas and Bizcotela Vestida
