Veronica has been recreating the flavors of Distrito Federal (Mexico City), almost since she arrived in San Francisco with her husband in 1995. Veronica started cooking for friends and family to quiet their longing for the foods of their beloved Distrito Federal. Their longing was San Francisco's fortune.
In 2006, Veronica became involved with La Cocina, San Francisco's first incubator kitchen, and soon after opened a booth at the Alemany Farmer's Market - El Huarache Loco (literally, The Crazy Sandal) has been a staple at the Alemany market ever since.
On any given weekend, you'll find Veronica serving authentic dishes from he beloved Mexico City. Unfortunately, what you won't find at Veronica's booth are her winning tamales. For this, you'll have to make special arrangements with Veronica - but they're worth every bit the effort.
In 2007, Veronica featured her Oaxacan style black mole tamal at our first annual A Taste of Tamales by the Bay. This tamal, with its succulent meat marinated in the 'black,' thick mole, earned Veronica the Best Traditional Tamale award in 2007.
In true Oaxacan style, Veronica's mole reveals stronger chocolate notes, accentuating the many other ingredients that make up this deliciously complex sauce, without ever being overpowering. Balance is the trick to excellent mole, and Veronica's black mole tamal was exactly that, a perfect balance of flavors wrapped in moist organic maize - an obvious winner.
As delicious as her tamales are, Veronica's signature dish is the Huarache, a sandal shaped corn tortilla stuffed with refried beans and lightly griddled. The huaraches are then topped with red or green salsa, crema (crème), onion, queso fresco (a slightly dry Mexican cheese), cilantro and a topping of your choice - milanesa, chicken or nopales (cactus salad). An excellent meal anytime, but an especially delicious breakfast before tackling the rest of weekend.
!Buen Provecho!
