“The story of any dish is diminished when you take away the author’s ownership. And unfortunately, most of the time, the people that created these [historic] dishes were Mexican women, but you don’t see the dish again until it’s recreated by a white man a century later,” he says. “It’s important to know where these recipes came from.”
