A Bit of History
Chile en Nogada is a dish with more history than your grandma’s soap operas. Originating from Puebla and created to celebrate Mexico’s Independence, this delicacy combines sweet and savory flavors with a walnut sauce that steals the show. But let’s not get too sentimental; let’s get to the good stuff: our recipe!
Our Version of Chile en Nogada
Forget the boring versions—in La Vicenta, we take the classic chile poblano and give it our unique and delicious twist:
- Grilled Poblano Pepper: Because nothing tastes better than a fire-roasted chile.
- Stuffed with Grilled Meat, Fruits, and Nuts: A juicy mix of meat with apple, peach, pear, banana, candied pineapple, raisins, and almonds. Yes, you read that right—grilled meat!
- Pomegranate and Parsley: For that fresh, colorful touch that feels like a Mexican fiesta.
- Traditional Nogada Sauce: A creamy walnut sauce that’s like a hug for your taste buds.
- Port Wine Honey: Because a touch of sweetness is always welcome.
- Crispy Fried Rice Noodles: For that satisfying crunch we all love.
And if you’re the adventurous type, you can choose to have your chile with or without the traditional egg batter.
