In Season One, Pati introduces us to the Mexican experience. Each episode finds Pati in her home kitchen preparing a series of dishes centered on a singular Mexican trait, for example using versatile ingredients like avocado, tomatillos and vanilla in a variety of ways, or different takes on crowd-pleasing dishes such as quesadillas and wrapped foods, or exploring the foods of the Mexican Revolution and dishes created in convents. In between, she visits street-food vendors, open-air markets, and cultural landmarks in her childhood hometown of Mexico City. As she cooks, she not only shares important cooking skills, techniques and basics about the ingredients, but also personal family stories, traditions and legends behind the food.

Pati’s Mexican Table Season Eight transports us to a region of Mexico largely unseen by the outside world. Stretching along northern Mexico’s west coast — from the majestic Sierra Madre mountain range to the small towns sprinkled along the beaches of the Pacific, and through fertile farmland between natural rivers and man-made dams — Pati crisscrosses the state of Sinaloa, considered Mexico's breadbasket. Exploring by road, by sea, by train, by foot, and even by mule, she learns why the people of Sinaloa are so proud of their regional cuisine, traditional sourcing and cooking techniques, and unique ingredients. Pati also continues her exploration of the evolution of Mexican food in the U.S. with a stop in Tucson to taste some of its Mexican favorites.

On this season of Pati’s Mexican Table, Pati explores Nuevo León, a sprawling northeastern border state draped in dazzling mountains and miles of desert. Defined by its sparse ingredients, proximity to the US border, and influences from Sephardic Jewish culinary roots, the flavors here are truly distinctive.

This is the land of cabrito and carne asada. Multi-generational families all over the state gather at carne asadas weekly to share stories, connect, roast cabritos on fire spits and throw handmade flour tortillas directly onto the coals.
