Ayote en miel — a spiced, jammy dessert made from slow-cooking squash in a sweet, syrupy mixture, is often served as part of Día del los Muertos traditions.
It's not fall for Alicia Maher until she smells the warm spices from her slow-cooked squash dessert at her home in Los Angeles. As she sets up her ofrenda, an altar to honor her ancestors, she thinks about her childhood in El Salvador, where her aunts and grandmother took her to Tonacatepeque, a municipality of San Salvador, for Día de los Muertos. She and other children dressed like angels and asked for ayote en miel, that squash dessert she now cooks at home.
In Mexico, the dish is called calabaza en tacha, or candied pumpkin. In some regions, it is served with Mexican crema. In Ecuador, where food blogger Layla Pujol grew up, the dish is called dulce de zapallo. It's served year-round as a dessert in some restaurants but is more commonly enjoyed as a sweet treat on special occasions, such as when guests come over, or given as gifts.
