    This baroque dish has recently become an obsession of mine after having finally tried it at a little yucateco bakery and seeing it on Bayless's show.

    Has anyone tried to make it?
    " came across the El Yucateco brand Chilmole brick (similar to the achiote).

    Recado negro can be made at home, but depending on the recipe, it involves burning either tortillas or chilies until they're black, to color the recado. There are vast numbers of recipes from recado negro on the Internet, and when I first had it at Flower's Pot on Clark (Belizean restaurant, but Belizean cuisine shares Mayan roots with Yucatecan cuisine), they told me they made it at home all the time. The recipe I have is in Foods of the Maya, but I'm afraid it's still on my "to try" list, rather than my "past triumphs" list. But I can appreciate your enjoyment of it -- good stuff.
