Commemorate Mexican independence like a local with a delectable chile en nogada in a beautiful local home. Discover the dish's fascinating history and prepare it from scratch like thousands of families around Mexico. Learn about how the new Mexican nation converted a colonial recipe for delicious meat-, fruit- and nut-stuffed Poblano peppers in creamy walnut sauce into a symbol of their young country's extraordinary gastronomy, then prepare the dish from scratch using fresh local ingredients under the guidance of an expert chef. Around two hours later, enjoy the delicious results of your efforts at a table you've decorated with handmade serveware and festive decorations.
