/Sounds like "teh" (as in "ten") + "NEHR" (as in "net") + "EHL" (as in "egg") + "sah" (as in "salsa") + "SOHN" (as in "solo")/
A natural gift for cooking that makes food taste uniquely good. It is that personal touch you either have or you do not, no recipe can teach it. The grandmother with "el sazón" turns the same ingredients everyone else uses into something nobody can quite replicate. Common across Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, and the Caribbean.
“My grandma has that cooking gift no one else has; everything she makes is amazing.”
“You've got that special touch; whatever you cook always tastes like no one else's.”

Mojar el petate
To wet the bed, literally to soak the petate (the traditional palm mat used for sleeping). In Mexico it is the classic childhood embarrassment, used matter-of-factly about small kids or pets who have not yet learned bladder control.
