View ProfileCochinita pibil is the Yucátan's most famous pork dish, and we can see why! Pork is marinated in a bright and acidic sour orange juice, achiote paste full of spices, and cooked in banana leaves until pull-apart tender. Chef Maribel serves her pork in tacos, garnished with pickled onions to cut through the fat. Stewed black beans and a small tomato-cucumber salad make this meal complete!

Personal chef and cooking instructor in Austin, TX. My specialty covers foods from South America to North America. I'm motivated by the stories behind cooking and expressing that story into the flavor of the food. In 2017, my brother and I created Yuyo Peruano restaurant as a celebration of my culinary immersion throughout South America, where I connected with the people and the culinary community from Bolivia, Peru, Argentina, and Uruguay. I was recognized by the James Beard Foundation with a Best Chef nomination in 2019. Due to covid Yuyo closed with many other opportunities to cook for many more than I could have imagined through CookUnity.
