Issue 001 · Mexico
Mexican food, remembered and cooked with intention.
The Seasoned Eye is a culinary magazine by chef Martha Landeros. We go to the markets, kitchens and family tables of Mexico, write down what we learn, and bring it back to a chef's plate.
Food as art. Art as story.
Every dish in these pages starts with a person: a fruit seller at the tianguis, an aunt with a clay pot, a cook who still grinds chiles by hand. We start with them and work our way to the plate.

The Seasoned Eye: Mexico 001
Our first issue walks through Mexico's markets and the food that comes out of them. Fruit sellers, pickled chiles, juice stands, and the recipes we built from all of it.
