Mexico: One Plate at a Time - Season 6 - Eps 12: Tequila Flights and Bites
Rick’s on a mission to tell the world about tequila, and he’s starting with a party for 25 at home. But it’s not about doing shots and licking salt off your hand. He wants to open people’s minds and palates to the complexities of Mexico’s smooth, super-premium tequilas made from 100% blue agave—artisanal products on a par with the world’s great brandies. So he’s planned a tasting with tequila flights and plenty of fun, satisfying food to match. In the town of Tequila, Rick gives us a firsthand look at the production process, from the harvesting and roasting of the agave hearts to fermentation, distilling, and aging. Back in Chicago, he and his daughter, Lanie, get started on what’s often called the Mexican party food: a big, bubbling vat of Classic White Pozole, a hearty stew of corn and pork that goes perfectly with the flavor of Tequila.
