About the event

Mole Making Class and Farm Fresh Supper
Join Chef Ernesto and his family for an unforgettable Mole Making Class! This immersive, hands-on experience will teach you the art of preparing this rich and complex Mexican dish and offer you a taste of the vibrant Oaxacan culture, where mole is a true celebration of life.

You will learn step by step how to create traditional mole sauce, discovering why Oaxaca is affectionately known as “The Land of the 7 Moles.” You’ll get the chance to roast and grind an array of ingredients, including chiles, nuts, seeds, spices, chocolate, and fruit. It’s a fantastic opportunity to master the art of balancing flavors, from smoky and spicy to subtly sweet, achieving the perfect thickness for your mole.

As the mole simmers to perfection, we’ll also prepare some delicious accompanying dishes such as chicken, rice, and beans. To enhance the experience, we’ll sip on Oaxacan-style beverages and delve into discussions about the rich culture and culinary heritage of Oaxaca, often hailed as the food capital of Mexico.

This class is more than just a cooking lesson; it’s about embracing the joy of creating a deeply flavorful and complex sauce that has been passed down through generations. By the end of this session, you’ll have a greater understanding of this essential part of Mexican culinary tradition and how food plays a pivotal role in our celebration.

—————–

Chef Ernesto is the proprietor of El Molcajete Sauces. His favorite childhood memory was helping his mom make mole sauce from scratch every Sunday for dinner with his 5 siblings. Her mole preparation began on Friday and everything was blended by hand on a metate (or mealing stone) grinding the ingredients to make a perfect sauce. When Ernesto became a father, he started the same tradition with his family every Sunday. You can taste his care in every jar of Mole Sauce (which is for sale in Liberty Prairie’s Farm Store).
