Rick Bayless Mole: Manchamanteles

Fruit-filled and mild red in color, manchamanteles mole is claimed as one of the seven Oaxacan moles. It’s always a popular option: it’s light, mild in flavor, seasoned with black pepper, cloves and cinnamon, then simmered with fruit. The word “manchamanteles” doesn’t trace back to the Aztecs or Mayans, by the way. It’s a joined pair of Spanish words that means “tablecloth stainer.”

I wish more americans try mole and other mexican dishes not just, tacos, burritos, fajitas.. there is more to mexican foos than that. Im glad you are bringing these dishes out and opening some peoples eyes, and encouraging people to try new foods.

I have made chocolate mole enchiladas every birthday since my son was 10. 23 years, and this year it will be your recipe.

0:12 Rick, the way I learned it years ago was that it was named for the Pasilla chile's tendency to stain the tablecloth reddish, but that recipe used Mulato, Ancho, and Pasilla chiles so I don't know if that legend came from an older recipe that used only Pasilla, or the recipe in the book because I don't see how they could have separated-out the Pasilla as the culprit for what was mostly responsible for staining the tablecloth. It mentioned that one could simply use all Ancho chiles if push came to shove, but I've always made it with that mixture.

Oh my gosh! That looks delicious 😋 I will be making this dish for sure with my daughter for our family. Thanks Rick!!

I find it funny that it’s called manchamanteles when in reality all of the moles in existence will end up staining more than just the tablecloths 😝

Great recipe. Being Cuban, we use lots of rendered lard and bone in chicken. Lots of flavor.

[@superchimp2888]

WOW Ricky B! Great production...

[@elpelondeoaxaca4809]

Looks good..my mom also makes mole. we are from Oaxaca a Town call "san juan mixtepec". You should go visit the Market over there..they got a bunch of different types of food..mole is one of the traditional. Good Job chef.✌😎

What a good idea using footage from older MOPAT shows! I would like to be able to watch the older seasons but they aren't available (online or rerun) and even the dvd offerings are very incomplete and some sold out so why don't you keep loading them up - please. This series of mole videos is a great idea - enjoying them - great instructions and not as complex as one usually thinks for mole.

[@elizabethrodriguezmorales2886]

Great recipe. Chef you look younger in each video.

[@datninjajr2306]

Thank you for the moloe recipe

[@bobjones01]

Manchamanteles is my favorite.

[@muleasfy1862]

I’m a fan of the new video style! And this mole seems absolutely delicious, the addition of pineapple and plantains is very interesting

[@senormoll]

This is from season 9, so 2013

[@DJBuglip]

Chef, quick question: why didn't you use the water you'd soaked the chiles in for the sauce?

[@JohnnyDaines]

Looks great, chef!

[@jman4817]

Looks great! Thanks chef!

[@speeedracerx]

The video cuts off right as you're starting to make rice. Will that be a different upload?

[@alexbaus6119]

I was also wondering that

[@sallyburkett-caskinette8723]

Look through his videos for Garlicky white rice, you will see the beginning of where he starts talking about this rice.

[@fadsmfawopefaw]

Hi Chef Bayless,
I live in Texas (where mole ingredients are aplenty, but mole in a restaurant is still hard to find) and I'm absolutely pumped that you have so many mole videos and I've been working through them to learn what I can!
I've been digging through your UA-cam library and bookmarking them individually.
It would be amazing if you made a "Moles" playlist so we could find all the 7 Core Oaxacan Mole videos in one place.
Also, do you have a "Mole Chichilo" video out yet? (I'm looking for one if you do!)

[@fargley001]

Really enjoying the mole series, thanks. That's a cool shirt too - lookin' sharp, Bayless.

[@giuseppelogiurato5718]

Lol, "stains the tablecloth"!

[@cuppalightroast]

Dónde está el arroz??

[@BeauMonday]

That ended abruptly. How is this served? Over rice? It looked like you were going into a segment about rice when the video abruptly ended

[@elizabethrodriguezmorales2886]

Generally is served alone , if you like something else you can serve some potatoes , vegetables or rice aside.

[@joelransom6530]

Wait…Is this an April Fools joke? I feel like we’ve gone back to the 90’s.
