What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was particularly impressed by the Black Pepian, noting its unique nuttiness and smoky flavor derived from roasted sesame and pumpkin seeds. He also marveled at the tender, melt-in-your-mouth pork skin in the white beans, which he described as surprisingly light despite its richness. Throughout the tour, he emphasized the importance of using fresh tortillas as the perfect vessel for enjoying traditional Guatemalan stews.
