We are cocina!

We love food, just like every soul on this planet. But we’ll take hands over fancy silverware, anytime. No jacket required. For a dress code, a smile. Bring on the large gathering, we thrive on noise. We include, not exclude. We eat; therefore, we hang to what seems like forever.

Time is not money, but a chance to spend time together. Fresh is the name of the game. Nature, we share. Processed, we pass. We love the science of simple. Grill it. Boil it. Season it. An ancient indigenous voice channels through abuelita. Red hot, chile green, mole brown,

Rice white or corn yellow. All colors are welcome to the table as long as they are colorful. Why not just relax. We cook to nurture you and your history. We may spice your emotions to tears, but we’ll always feed your heart. Only, if you come, be ready to hug. For the love of our cocina.

Thank you Mr. Sanchez, my wife does not like peppers, onions or anything spicy. I never tried guacamole but I tried a slice of avocado and did not like it. I now know why, salt.. I bought a molcajete, cured and seasoned it and made your recipe without the dried grasshoppers. WOW!! I now know what I've been missing... AMAZING!! THANK YOU!!

The sun-dried grasshoppers and worms were a little too authentic for me

I love his commentary, and the dried ants, grasshoppers, scorpions, etc. were his personal touch

Tried this recipe today. It is very complex, multi level tasting. You get the creamy avocado, herb, and the diced texture of tomato and onion. Heat comes into the palette. It feels like it’s going to be too hot then quickly changes into lime.

The “core” component is the base. Chilies, lime, onion, and oregano blended together. It ensures the acid and heat are evenly distributed through the guacamole.
