Molcajete dishes
There seems to be an increase in the number of restaurants in the San
Diego area offering dishes served in blazing hot molcajetes. I first experienced these in Guadalajara and thought they were very interesting, although, in a restaurant setting, a bit "dangerous" as were oil fondues back in the 50s-60s. Are these popping up elsewhere? jim |

I remember to have been in "Los Cazadores" in Guadalajara looooong ago. I had some sort of fondues, but it was from casuelas. Irma. |

Molcajetes, just like the large one I have for making salsa. Volcanic rock. The ones you refer to (cazuelas?) are clay-based if I recollect correctly and guisados are served in them, among other things. The menus here in SD that have these dishes also use "molcajete" in either the name or description of the food. jim |

Very intriguing. What sort of dishes are they serving in the hot molcajetes?

There may be another molcajete dish, but cannot remember. I didn't order the molcajete at Mariscos Marisol and did not pay attention to it. Next time there, I'll note what is in it. jim |
