It’s Saturday morning at Echo Park Lake when Tania Macin hoists the heavy lid off a vintage yellow Le Creuset stock pot.
In a special bonus episode of ‘Off Menu,’ Food columnist Lucas Kwan Peterson goes to Mexico City to sample a variety of Mexican food.
Frustrated by an endless job search — she worked as a digital marketing specialist in Mexico — Macin, who learned to cook from her Veracruz-raised grandparents, stumbled into cooking.After receiving heavy praise for the cochinita pibil she brought to a friend’s dinner party, she and Mosbaugh purchased a grill online and brought Tania’s Tacos into existence.
“At first I thought, ‘What if I do a pop-up and nobody comes?’” she said. “Well, at least I’d have a lot of food for three months.” While the traditional recipe for cochinita pibil involves suckling pig cooked underground in a stone-lined pit, Macin uses bone-in, skin-on pork shoulder for both the cochinita tacos and the sloppy Joe-style sandwiches on King’s Hawaiian rolls that are the core of her four-item menu.
