Dishes to honor the memories of friends and family who are no longer with us. The Day of the Dead, or "Día de los Muertos" in Spanish, is a Mexican holiday celebrated on November 1st and 2nd. The holiday is characterized by a joyful and respectful remembrance, celebrating the lives of those who have passed away rather than mourning their loss. Tamales, mole, and elote are some of the foods eaten in honor of those who have passed.

Imagine a culinary masterpiece where comfort meets elegance: potato pavé. Picture thinly sliced potatoes layered meticulously in a dish, topped with chopped walnuts then baked to perfection. The top forms a delectable, crisp crust, revealing a lush, velvety texture underneath. Crowning the pavé is a maple sage cream sauce that harmoniously blends the rich, earthy tones of fresh sage with the warm, sweet essence of pure maple syrup. Potato pavé is not just a side dish; it's a sophisticated indulgence that transforms a humble ingredient into a gourmet experience.
