Building on the exhibit, “Enchiladas: A Global Journey to New Mexico,” on display at Gutierrez Hubbell House May-August 2021, Dr. Stone examines the ways that migration, communication, and trade have helped shape local food traditions. She explores some of the methods, ingredients, and crops that have been adopted, cultivated, changed, and embraced by farmers and chefs in New Mexican kitchens and yards over time.
