TLAYUDA WITH BLACK BEAN PUREE (AKA MEXICAN UNPIZZA)



Tlayuda With Black Bean Puree (Aka Mexican Unpizza) image

This is the genuine article, an Oaxacan specialty. Not to be called pizza. Better than the sum of its parts, the texture is key. I served with a Louisiana hot sauce, you may want to serve with salsa if you are not into things too hot. Other beans would also work well with this. As published in the NY Times.
