Pati Jinich is a chef whose true passion is bringing authentic Mexican flavors, colors, textures and warmth into American kitchens. She shares the tastes and culinary adventures of her native country.

Pati learns that carne asada goes way beyond grilled meat in Sonora. It's an important weekly ritual that brings the whole family together.

Pati spends a day in Sonora's capital, Hermosillo, visiting some of the city's best culinary destinations. From gigantic burritos at Doña Guille to Sonoran hot dogs, Pati experiences all Hermosillo's food scene has to offer.

Pati visits the birthplace of Mexico's most famous spirit, the town of Tequila. Back home Pati makes a brunch of corn tortilla egg nests with salsa verde con chile de árbol and traditional arroz rojo.

Pati's climber friends take her on an adventure to the Sierra Madre mountains, followed by a quick elote snack. Later, Pati connects with four top chefs for a carne asada with a mountain backdrop.
