Joseph,
If you can read recipes in a book and follow them, you could make
"capirotada" yourself. When I went to New Orleans and to League City TX,
they served something called "bread pudding" that was just like my mother's
capirotada. My mother was from New Mexico, where the Anglos' southern
style cooking was an influence along with everything else. My mother used
to tear up pieces of bread and toast them then made a simple syrup and layered
the toasted bread with grated cheddar cheese and raisins and then pour the hot
syrup over it and let it sit awhile. If you look up a recipe for
Southern-style bread pudding, you could make yourself some capirotada.
There are so many versions of it. I really liked the one in the South with
bourbon sauce in it--yum! Don't any of the restaurants in your area serve
bread puddings?

Victor,
I thought they called it the "Mestizaje"? However, that word is
not in my Spanish dictionary. I found "mescladura" and
"mezcolanza". What say you, Jose Roman? What do they call it in
Mexico? Victor is in Mexico as much as Jose Roman.
Donde vives Victor?
Victor can you put a little capirotada in a jar
and send it to me?:

I haven't had capirotada in over 20 years and i absolutely love
it. My mom didn't make it every year but probably on average of every other
year. I used to over indulge. But she did make on the order of 30 dozen
tamales every year with us kids sitting around the table spreading the masa
(thankfully only when she could capture us). My sisters used to be made to do
the whole procedure when they were younger.

ps: do they
have Jalisco Capirotada, Zacatecas Capirotada and Aguascalientes Capirotada?
Boy I'd love to try all three versions even if they all tasted the same.

Ed,
The Americans talk about the "melting pot"; the
Canadians speak about
a "mosaic". The Italians tutti
frutti.
What could we call the Mexican mix? Capirotada?
Sopa de
Letras?
