WHAT TO EAT IN METZTITLÁN
Metztitlán has the distinction of Pueblo con Sabor (Town with Flavor), so you are guaranteed to find good gastronomic options.
Try the delicious recaudo or fish tamales, tecocos (a corn dough gordita mixed with pork lard and salt filled with bean or pea paste), green xalita, pumpkin popsicles, esquites with pulque, and esquites with chicken.
Other dishes you will find in this Magic Town are corn husk tamales, Zacatamal, made with a special mole and filled with pork or chicken.
You can also savor the typical Hidalgo barbacoa and follow the Pulque Route to meet the tlachiqueros and learn how this drink, with an alcohol content of about 4 to 6 degrees, is fermented and prepared.
If you like sweets, you should not miss baked fruits, which are similar to cookies made with lard, flour, butter, tequezquite, orange juice, and sprinkled with cinnamon and powdered sugar.
