EMPANADAS
I couldn´t say good bye without mentioning the delicious empanadas of amarillito, this empanadas are made by hand in a comal, they are made with an oval tortilla that is heated and filled with amarillito mole, this is a oaxacan mole that has a yellow tone, that is why the tortillas take an orange tone in the cooking.
You can eat this delight in the Oaxacan markets and in some towns.
