🇬🇹 Guatemalan Street Food Tour: https://youtu.be/H-fwK4mX6Tg?si=9GArjNDqSIbcSLy6 👕 T-shirts: https://store.migrationology.com/ 🌶 Ghost Chili: https://amzn.to/3PNTvNQ ANTIGUA GUATEMALA, GUATEMALA - We’re in the historical city of Antigua Guatemala in Guatemala, Central America, and today we’re meeting up with Rebecca to cook and eat a dish called Kak'ik - one of the best Mayan Guatemalan foods! Actually just outside of Antigua, we drove out to Santa Ana, Guatemala and specifically to Maya-iz where they are aiming to preserve their Mayan traditions and culture through food. We met up with Rebecca d Leon from Kukul Tales who shares a passion for food and culture. We immediately got started cooking the Kak'ik, using a whole live turkey, then roasted tomatoes, onions, cilantro and a variety of chilies, Everyone was roasted and toasted, then ground into a puree and combined in a huge ceramic pot with the turkey. The flavors started to brew and blend, and they kept adding more herbs and culantro to the soup to make it well balanced, herbaceous and healthy. I loved seeing the entire cooking process. Along with the kak’ik, they also made some of the best tamales I’ve ever had - they were so juicy and moist with the right amount of meat filling and olives on the inside. We also tried some sour dried fruit juice called chicha and a dish that included a variety of tripe stewed down until ultra tender. But the ancient Mayan recipe for turkey soup kak’ik was the highlight, a truly well rounded blend of seasoning with nothing overpowering the flavor of the turkey. It was delicious!

I don't know why i'm always doing this to myself. Watching this at night with no food while watching Mark enjoy himself is a vibe everyone is feeling right now.

I love the Guatemala videos. That is my 2nd. home. My son and I lived there for 7 years. I worked for the corporation Pizza Hut opening up new stores for them there. And I was so disappointed when my job came to an end, and I had to come home to the USA. I love the people and culture they have. And until you taste the food you have no clue the flavors you get. Oh my gosh! It is so good. Thank you Mark for this video. I sure hope there are more Guatemala videos coming. Still waiting.

They were laughing when Mark added more hot chilli powder, but he is on a different level. Beautiful food, people, and country. Thank you for sharing, and thanks, Rebecca, for being a lovely host

Hi there, Guatemalan here! Everything he says is true and more, this is my favorite soup growing up. I used to have it when visiting family in Cobán and stateside during special occasions. Find an authentic recipe and try making it, share our culture more and more. I would love to hear one day that someone has tried it when I bring it up. 30 years old, nobody has ever heard of it before.
