Paste Museum

The Paste Museum in Mineral del Monte is a building dedicated to this regional dish and how it is made. It contains exhibition areas showing traditional recipes, cooking methods, and the equipment people used to prepare it over time.

The dish arrived in Mineral del Monte in the 1800s when Cornish miners settled in the area and brought their traditional recipes with them. It quickly became part of local food culture and remains connected to the region's mining heritage.

Paste holds deep roots in the community as a meal that miners brought with them and that locals still prepare at home using family methods. The museum shows how this dish became woven into daily life and regional identity over time.

The museum is located within walking distance of Mineral del Monte's center, making it easy to find by asking locals for directions. Visitors should allow enough time to walk through the exhibition spaces and watch any demonstrations that might be happening during their visit.

The collection includes original cooking pots and baking equipment from different time periods that reveal how techniques changed over the years. These tools tell the story of miners and their families preparing meals day after day with limited resources but great skill.
