The Traditions of Día de los Muertos Nourish the Living, Too
"I found that Fermín Núñez of Suerte in Austin has been honing the mole negro he makes for his grandmother, María Eugenia Chávez de Núñez, for years; he treats mole day as a ritual—refusing to make it if he’s in a bad mood, playing Maná’s album Sueños Líquidos to set the vibe and signal not to be disturbed—and describes the mole as an expression of who he is and the trajectory that brought him to this version, hoping his grandmother would deem it perfect." - Sam Gutierrez
