My second time making chapines and I think they came out pretty good. Only time will tell. Let's see what sprouts! A #chapín is the way we germinate #seed (and sometimes #cuttings) in the #chinampa.
Chapines were invented along with other chinampa practices by the #Xochimilca well before the arrival of the Spanish and even the Mexica. Basically you dredge mud from the canal and dump it into a depression in the earth. The next day you cut it into squares, make dimples with your fingers, drop seeds, abd cover with dirt and manure.
Follow, boost, comment and favorite for more Chinampa stuff.
