Today I learned that Mexico celebrates the day of the dead, although it sounds morbid, it's actually a festive holiday, essentially like a Memorial Day. The celebratory occasion is to remember friends and family who have passed and remembering those beautiful moments that were spent together. One of the ways to remember loved ones is by celebrating with their favorite foods. This holiday is actually celebrated throughout Latin America. I think it pretty special and wanted to share it with you all. I decided to prepare one of my moms most favorite which was Black Bean Soup (Sopa Negra)...she appreciated food in general, but she mostly preferred soups and stews. The Black Bean Soup is still cooking, but I will most definitely share the recipe and a photo later on.
I encourage you to create a recipe of a family or friend that meant a lot to you! The holiday is on 11/2, but you don't have to wait until then.
