Season Six takes Pati to one of the most traveled and talked about regions in all of Mexico, the vibrant and beautiful state of Oaxaca. Oaxaca is known as one of Mexico’s top culinary destinations, and Pati is going on an in-depth tour, tasting everything from chocolates to cheeses, to moles and mezcal, and exploring the very best of what Oaxaca has to offer. Back in her home kitchen, those adventures become the inspiration for simple, family-friendly recipes to delight her friends and, of course, her three growing boys who always show up in the kitchen hungry.
