Panuchos
Cochinita Pibil is one of the most famous traditional dishes from Yucatan. It consists of pork marinated in a blend of achiote, naranja agria, and various spices, then wrapped in banana leaves and slow-cooked until tender. The traditional method involves cooking the pork in an underground pit oven, which gives the meat a smoky, earthy flavor.
Panuchos are a popular traditional appetizer from Yucatan, know for their crispy, flavorful, and richly layered structure. They are small, fried tortillas that are stuffed with black beans and then topped with various ingredients like shredded turkey, lettuce, tomato slices, avocado, and pickled red onions.
Marquesitas are made fresh by street vendors, who spread the batter onto a hot, flat griddle, much like a crepe. Once cooked to a crisp, they add the chosen fillings and quickly roll the crepe into a tube shape. The result is a crunchy exterior with melted, gooey fillings inside.
