Authentic Chiles en Nogada

Cristian L. Macias
Authentic chiles en nogada are a characteristic dish of Mexican cuisine. There is a legend that says this dish was created by Augustinian nuns in a convent in Puebla to celebrate the signing of Independence with the Treaties of Córdoba. A delicate dish, full of flavor and with the elegance that such an event required. Authentic chiles en nogada are filled with sweet picadillo, battered, and covered in a creamy nogada sauce, garnished with red pomegranate seeds and finely chopped parsley. Undoubtedly, an emblematic dish with the colors that represent Mexico and that cannot be missed on your table during these patriotic celebrations. So don’t wait any longer and cook authentic chiles en nogada.
