Sazón

Interior and traditional. The empanadas de huitlacoche of handmade corn masa are stuffed with corn truffle or "corn smut" to make a real delicacy. Look for salsa made with a molcajete, or mortar and pestle, and be sure to try the puerco pipian, which are pork carnitas smothered in a roasted pumpkin seed sauce. – Gracie Salem
