Revolutionary Bites

Season 13 Episode 1304 | 26m 46s

Pati journeys to Casas Grandes to experience the preserved foods, or “conservas,” that sustained people during the Mexican Revolution. She meets a family that has lived for generations at Hacienda de San Diego, Mexico’s “White House” for a day after the battle of Casas Grandes, including Diana Acosta and her mother, Sara Ramírez, who still preserves foods the way they did during the war.
