The Yucatan Flavour Kit
During the time of the Maya’s, food was at constant risk of spoiling in the tropical jungle climate of the Yucatan. To prevent this, pilbil, a way to preserve wild game with a spice rub and pit smoke, was invented. With influences from the Caribbean, Dutch, Lebanese and Spanish, Yucatan culture has evolved but continues to maintain it’s original Mayan roots.
