Blue Corn in Copper Canyon

Blue corn…they raise the stuff there and use it often. We enjoy it usually as tortillas and often staight off the wood stove top early in the day. Here in the orchard at Cabanas Diaz in Areponapuchi, Armando is showing us some young ears which we enjoyed as sweet corn a few minutes later with lunch.
At 6am a few days later, I feasted on blue corn tortillas with a friend in Cerocahui. There is nothing better to get the day started than on of these thick tortillas and some black coffee.
Several days ago as I was coming up out of Copper with teh folks from Trans Americas Journey, I enjoyed some crunchy tortillas with some workers at the new telocarril near Piedra Volada. Great flavor.
