Oaxacan Tlayuda with Black Beans and Cheese

by Katie Bowers

Crispy edges of a large, thin tlayuda crust rest on a rustic ceramic plate, its surface dusted with fine cornmeal. A thick layer of melted Oaxaca cheese drapes over the center, pooling slightly around a generous spread of black beans. The dish sits near a window, catching the angled late-afternoon sun that pours in from the north, highlighting the glistening oil on the beans and the golden-brown char spots on the tortilla. Deep shadows fall across the table surface, creating a contrast with the warm, bright food. The shallow depth of field blurs the window frame behind, keeping focus on the texture of the melted cheese and the matte finish of the beans. One bean rests near the rim, separate from the main pile.
