Episode 911: Chocolate & Coffee from Bean to Cup | Rick Bayless "Mexico: One Plate at a Time"
In Mexico, it is just as common to start your day with a cup of steaming hot chocolate as it is with coffee. Little wonder, when the chocolate is made from freshly roasted cacao beans and seasoned with cinnamon and a touch of sugar. Rick takes us to world-renowned Mayordomo near the main market in Oaxaca and to Seasons of My Heart Cooking School to see the process from two perspectives. For the best cup of coffee ever, Rick takes a day trip to Finca Las Nieves Coffee Plantation where the owners are passionate in their pursuit. Set in almost a thousand acres of the Oaxacan cloud forest, we see organic altura coffee from the bean to the cup. In Chicago, Rick creates a Oaxacan-style tres leches cake with coffee and chocolate. Now we’re wide awake.

I remember liking the lighter stuff and my friends would accuse me of not liking good coffee. Good coffee speaks for itself.
Awesome! This was so interesting! On my next layover in Chicago, I'm getting myself to your restaurant for that Hot Chocolate if I can get in!🎉
Merry Christmas, Chef Rick! Thank you so much for sharing your great video with us! Like 👍🏻1
the way the mayans have drunk their chocolate for ages & ages. just chocolate & water. i finally tried it that way, & i gotta say, i loved it! can't wait to get my hands on more oaxacan chocolate.
My new favorite drink for the summer, iced coffee Mexican style. Glass of horchata on ice and two shots of expresso. A must try Rick Bayless.
Thank you.
This is a good episode, Rick. I love coffee and chocolate.
I love your take on Mexican cuisine !! As authentic as it can be!
At the rural school where my husband taught English in Tamaulipas, his students, k-6 graders, had coffee and cookies for breakfast. I'm sure it was mostly Nescafe and marias. Parents, moms mostly, come and make the kids almuerzo at the schools.
Interesting and yummy
Love your channel
What a yummy episode!! Loved the chocolate part of the show 😊
Hi, Rick. Will you do a video, please, on something fast you can make for lunch, besides a quesadilla? Quesadillas are always my go-to, because I always have tortillas and cheese, but I need more variety! My son bought two of your books for me for Christmas 😊❤

Real Mexican chocolate do not need milk. Just water and sugar, Hot or cold is amazing.

High lead and cadmium levels are an issue with some dark chocolate. Is this a concern with Mexican chocolate?
