Tamales are one of the most important gastronomic symbols of Mexico. In Morelia there is a variation of this famous dish, the corundas, corn meal balls with fat and salt that can be filled with a piece of meat and wrapped in corn leaves. Another famous variation we can find is the uchepos, also based on corn. Tender corn grains are ground to make a meal with milk and the outcome is of sweet flavor and soft consistency.<\/p>\n

Pollo placero or market chicken is also an icon of Morelia cuisine. The recipe is quite simple but the flavor is unique; herbs and vegetables as lettuce, potatoes and carrots are key to achieve the characteristic flavor. On the other hand we have the chupiro, a be\"6a00d8341c571453ef01b7c7a0b9b2970b-800wi\"ef broth with vegetable and chilies very common as part of the menu of meetings and events of Morelian families.<\/p>\n

Worth mentioning is the purepecha soup, which is basically a beans soup served with fried tortilla strips, cheese, cream and tree chili, traditional and delicious dish available in the typical diner or in the most sophisticated restaurant.<\/p>\n

In regards to beverages, we can start with the famous charanda, a sugar cane distilled, the mezcal, eggnog, quince liquors and white atole, and the colorful macaw, an alcoholic drink mixed with pineapple and orange juice and white rum, mezcal or even better, charanda. Its name comes from the presentation as it is served with pineapple leaves and a slice of orange, which looks like a macaw’s beak.<\/p>\n

We have reached the sweet part and here we can talk about the most famous sweets of Morelia and the state, the ones made wit\"img_1016\"h milk such as cajeta or milksweet, burnt milk balls, jamoncillo and custards, besides coconut, guava and tamarind sweets.
