Really cool! I'm a farmer on the Navajo Reservation. Its good to see other NM farmers and how they do things. I think i will be learning how to make a horno now lol.
God bless you the hard work of you’re hands, the sweat of you’re back has blessed a lot of us with such bounty.I didn’t realize that it took so,so much work we thank you and are very great full to you,i learned to appreciate the Chicos that we consume.
This is simply beautiful! Being from Peñasco, NM, Chico’s, are a huge part of my family, heritage, and culture. I can’t tell you all enough, just how proud I am, of these peoples hard work, in feeding Northern New Mexico, & our surrounding communities! From our own personal homes, for every occasion, gathering, holidays, or celebration, “Chico’s” are an intricate part, a huge staple, in our culture, and our cuisine. May God bless the Casado’s family, & Casado’s Farms, my vecinos, down the Rio Grande Valley, in the beautiful Española Valley. It is because of your hard work, we have such a wonderful delicacy!
Could they not find a way to make this process more inefficient and labor-intensive? Also: he claims his direct ancestors brought corn to this area from Spain in 1592?!!!! Corn/maize was being grown by the indigenous people of America who had long domesticated it and developed it as a staple crop all over the American Southwest in 1592 and for many centuries before that, thousands of years in fact, and it definitely didn't come from Spain. I suppose it's possible that some Spaniard in the New World took some corn home, grew it in Spain for a few years, and then brought some back to New Spain, but that's like bringing a can of beer to the beer store. It's a weird claim to make, and instantly makes me question everything else this man is asserting. His ancestors relied on wheat and cereal grains and that's what they would have brought with them from Spain.
Good video but very bad history listen. Corn is only native to the Americas. Being first domesticated in Central/Southern Mexico. Before 1492 corn was unknown to the rest of the world. Also colonial settlements in New Mexico didn't start until 1598 not 1592. I'm thinking his version of history is more of a Spanish fantasy rather than a New Mexican reality.

What an intricate hands on process. Fascinating!❤
What a great film and fine people. Very interesting.
When I lived in NNM during the hippie invasion, I made chicos in an adobe hobo in Penasco. I have loved them ever since!
Really good documentary
Hello from Southern New Mexico 😊.
Never heard that type of music. It's like a Disney Chicano sound. Not like Tejano
Now who have me a bowl 🥣 of beans and Green Chile with chico's n fresh tortillas or sopapilla
