i envy you zach zamboni. and we're out. nice end. peru is a country historically driven men mad. mad for gold. for its magical ancient history, but now there's something else drawing outsiders to the hidden mountain valleys. i'm talking about chocolate. it's now becoming as nuanced as fine wine making the pursuit of the raw good stuff all the more difficult. i'm joining that hunt in peru. but not before i've reimmersed myself in the lima food scene.

beloved culinary dynasty in peru. and pucusana, a small fishing village about an hour south of lima is where they spend their weekends. coque's mom, marisa guiulfo, is like peru's julia child and james beard rolled into one. >> thank you for having us. >> a cookbook author, an icon of peruvian gastronomy. to say one is fortunate to enjoy her hospitality would be an understatement. warm, generous, welcoming beyond belief. >> too bad you have to leave so soon. >> yeah. >> normally, we have lunch late,

like 5:00. >> do you nap before lunch or after? >> both. >> sounds like paradise. wow. look at this. >> every weekend, marissa opens the house to an ever changing mob of friends, visitors, drop-ins and family. >> this is fantastic. >> they do not skimp on the food. delicious, delicious things pour out of the kitchen, a torrent, a deluge of traditional peruvian favorites. >> i do this with crab meat, yellow potato and avocado. we love avocado. >> it is like a tureen of crab meat, eggs, avocado and mashed yellow potatoes. >> okay. >> this is from the coast. >> beautiful. >> basically raw king fish dressed with aji amarillo paste, and lime juice. >> perfect. >> that's scallops ceviche. >> fresh scallops and lemon juice and garlic. drum fish, braised with a corn based beer. >> they look fantastic. >> this is spicy. >> very spicy. >> and stuffed rocoto peppers filled with ground beef and raisins, served with cheese. >> wow.

>> are we lucky or what? >> we are lucky. >> that's just the beginning. there's so much more food there's no way we can show it all, much less describe it. it's incredible, overwhelming, invariably fresh and delicious and thrillingly different than what i'm used to. >> it's fantastic. >> i could frankly get out of the chocolate business right now, put up a pup tent on marissa's porch and pretty much dig in for the duration. this is living. >> those little fish are amazing. they're so fresh. >> i want to be her next door neighbor. >> it's so good.

>> so has peruvian cuisine always been this diverse and this delicious and we're just discovering it or has it changed over the last 15 years? >> it's changing any way. what you're eating now is the traditional food. >> there's so many products in peru that are unfamiliar to people in the states. when you eat this food, it's something like. it's not kind of like anything. >> it's a lot of ingredients. good ingredients all year round. >> it is very good. >> what do you do when you're homesick for peruvian food and you're traveling? there's really -- >> we take some chiles with us in the luggage. we're the perfect smugglers. >> i hate to say good-bye to this but it is what it is. things to do and places to go. wild and apparently extremely rare cacao trees to visit. >> incredible meal. so happy.

seafood specialist, famous for his incredible and uncompromising ceviches and his flaming wok. if peru has a national dish, it's probably ceviche. the freshest fish only needs the right cut, a little citrus and no heat. what's the most common thing people do wrong? >> the quality of the ingredients. you don't do a ceviche with something that's not fresh. >> the cut and the thickness. >> right. >> when you do it, you don't do it ahead of time. >> the whole place is served whatever menu he's doing that day, same for everybody. today, the flounder he got from the market is particularly nice, so that's what we're getting. generally thicker pieces to stand up to the spices and acids. first up an octopus and flounder ceviche. >> i don't know what to tell

immigrants came to peru in great numbers in the 19th and 20th centuries as contract laborers and farmers and their influence is felt here, particularly in the food, to a greater degree than anywhere else on the continent. it's that influence and the ingredients of amazonia and the andes that really distinguishes the food here as something special. >> what is this? tofu? >> queso fresco. >> this is not traditional. >> it looks asian to me. i believe it's probably -- >> his name is wong. unless he's a retired porn star -- this shouldn't be good but it is. working up a sweat on that one. might have a couple more beers after this. have a nice nap, midday nap. because i make the best chicken noodle soup.

the city of chiclayo lies about 400 miles northwest of

lima. it's peru's fourth largest city, with over a half million people living there. it's our next stop, the staging area for our trip to the mountains to find our cocao. chocolate. we know we like the stuff. how is it made? where does it come from? columbus was the first european to encounter cocao beans on a mayan trading canoe off the coast of honduras. he's said to have grabbed both crew and cargo and brought them back to spain. a few decades later a spanish conquistador, hernando cortez, came across aztecs using the sacred beans as a drink. it was considered the drink of the gods. like most expensive and delicious things from abroad, the largely inbred and frequently syphilitic european royalty did their best to keep

what was fast becoming a craze for hot chocolate to themselves. but it soon found its way to america. in 1765, the first chocolate factory opened in new england. chiclayo's main market is a massive one-stop shop for all things chocolate as well as just about everything else under the sun. oh, man you have your animal skulls. that's tempting. haircut? >> i'm good. >> wow. >> cacao. >> this is the raw beans? >> that is toasted. >> then she -- >> grinds it. >> then puts it in a mold. gracias. >> bitter. >> not sweet at all. >> no. >> they don't put sugar. >> actually, here we are in the area of the market that is, i believe, where they have what they call santarias. ripert, how should i put it? let's say he has more of a spiritual side than me.

>> this is all the ingredients that you need for the shaman to bless the rest of the cacao. >> okay. >> so he has us shopping for what i guess i'd call shamanic supplies. which place are we going to? i like the lady with the sunglasses. >> i like it too. >> medical medicinal herbs with properties to help us bless the cacao crop.

it looks like a shakedown but they're a welcome sight. this hill, where cars have to slow down, was where all sorts of highwaymen and miscreants used to waylay travellers like us. so these guys stepped in to take care of business. >> wow, that was a big shotgun. that will shoot through an engine block. actually, i don't really know but i'm assuming. at this time of year, there's also the rain and mud, which can mean flooded streets and streams that cut right across the roads. and there's this, the river. in the best of circumstances, a fairly adventurous way to get your vehicles across, a long line across a fast moving current, the ferry propelled only by the flow of water. but today, the river is too high and the current too fast.

up, just right! we make it to the other side, reasonably dry. beer? the maranon canyon is home to a wide range of species including and most interesting to us a strain of the cacao previously thought to be almost extinct. a few years ago, the valley's cacao trees were dna tested at a u.s. lab and had dna of the rarest form of cacao in the world. this stuff. don fortunato is our cacao connection, a farmer whose family has been working these mountains over 40 years. >> they're just absolutely beautiful when they start out.

>> really kooky looking pods as they just come off the trunk of the tree. they sort of look like someone glued them on to the side of a tree. this is a once a year crop? >> it grows continuously but this is a peak seasons. >> try that. put one in your mouth. bite it and see the nibs inside? those are the cocoa nib. >> where does chocolate come from? >> the bean. okay. here's where chocolate comes from. the trees produce pods. you split open the pods and take out the beans. the buyer sun drys the beans, then roasts them. after roasting, the beans are extracted from their shells and ground up, producing chocolate liqueur. mix this concentrate with milk, sugar, cacao butter and you get what we call commercial chocolate. now, our chocolate bar sells for a nosebleed price that's high by even premium chocolate standards. so where does the money go?

most importantly to me and eric, are we doing a good thing? here's how it breaks down. the raw cacao costs one chunk. labor, the inner sleeve, this much. design, box, packaging, this much. various sundry equipment and miscellaneous, another small chunk. chris, me and eric get a slice out of every bar. that leaves this much, which the retailer takes. chef bleeding heart hippie here has already convinced me to give whatever meager profits we make off our first bar to a local charity. >> what's unusual about these pods? these beans? >> extremely high quality flavor. >> thought not around for a while? >> this is what almost all chocolate was made of over 120 years ago. and making a guy and comeback. for a chocolatier, this is a once in a lifetime find. >> about 40% of the beans from these trees have white cacao

beans mixed in. the rest are purplish in color. but we've heard of an ultra rare group of trees elsewhere further up the mountains that produce pods of all 100% pure white beans and that's something that me and eric are very interested in down the road. but for now, don fortunato's daughter, johanna, has prepared us a traditional peruvian mountain meal. >> wow. >> oh! >> juanes. >> it's rice dumplings with boiled chicken and achiote inside. >> wow. this is amazing. not surprisingly, some cuy, or guinea pig, of which there seems to be many around for the taking. this preparation served with a cacao sauce. >> that's good. >> all of this food is delicious. >> so chocolate, it is a luxury food item. >> yes.

>> this is an area abundant with coffee, chocolate, fruit. how's life for the locals? [ speaking foreign language ] >> he says that 20 years ago, 25 years ago, it was easier for him. he was planting soybeans and coffee. >> right. >> he was making much more money. and then he didn't plant soybeans any longer and the coffee production went down so therefore he had a financial struggle for a while and now with the cacao trees they are planting, he has no more stress and fairly upbeat himself.
