These little peppers were made during afternoon outings. A small bonfire was made to roast the peppers, which were sometimes battered. They were used as a snack or appetizer and are a delight. They were accompanied by a small glass of pulque or a shot of tequila, with freshly handmade tortillas.

    To soak them, add a little salt and mix the pulque and syrup. Marinate the peppers in this mixture for at least an hour, then drain and dry them before stuffing.
