On this episode, Christopher Kimball visits a Oaxacan open-air market to eat local favorites. He visits the market's resident Frida Kahlo impersonator, Beatriz Vazquez, who cooks him her specialty, enchiladas verdes.
Later in the market, he tastes Molletes, a delicious open-faced sandwich served on thick-cut bread with refried beans and cheese.
Back at the kitchen, Milk Street Cook Catherine Smart draws from the flavors of Oaxaca to make Green Enchiladas with Chicken and Cheese (Enchiladas Verdes).
Finally, Milk Street Cook Bianca Borges shows us how to make Oaxacan-style Molletes with Pico de Gallo using ingredients easily found in the USA.
