Back on La Palma after the volcano, with her grandmother's mortar

Draft. This piece will go to Puntagorda, in the north of La Palma, where Yurena came back after the 2021 volcano and set up a small workshop with her grandmother Candelaria's recipe.

It will show how red mojo is made in the stone mortar Candelaria still uses, and why pounding gives a different sauce from grinding.

It will end at the table with papas arrugadas, the potatoes mojo is made to go with, and with what it means to stay on an island that so many people have left.
