Mexican food
Mexican cuisine has absorbed the legacy of the Aztecs and conquistadors. It necessarily contains beans and beans, corn, avocados and, of course, the visiting card of Mexican cooking - hot chili and chocolate. Some Mexican cuisine may seem too spicy, but this does not hurt to enjoy the unique taste of the dishes.
Mexican cuisine is famous for its sauces - salsa, which are much more interesting than the usual ketchup, but they are prepared very simply. A variety of tortillas are also loved in Mexico, mainly from cornmeal. Mexicans use thick tortillas as a spoon, scooping thick sauces with them, and then you can eat a “spoon”. Tortillas are the basis of many hot dishes, for example, enchilados or the burritos that are better known in our country. Most popular snacks - nachos, quesadillas, tacos, toastados, chimichangas - these are all the same fresh corn tortillas (not only from corn, but also from “imported "Spaniards of wheat) with toppings from corn and beans, with pepper, cheeses, minced meat with tomatoes.
“An old chicken can make a good broth,” says a Mexican proverb. Two types of soup are known to Mexicans - liquid and dry. The first they eat, like us, with a spoon, the second - with a fork. The fact is that it is boiled for so long that almost all the liquid boils away, and only non-boiling and non-digesting products remain in the pot: meat, pasta or rice. Both Mexicans eat soup with pleasure.
But the main dishes of Mexican cuisine are meat, which is often prepared from several varieties of meat. The most famous is chili con carne, for the preparation of which even championships are held. The Mexican menu also includes fish and seafood dishes - squid, octopus and shrimp. They are used both in hot dishes and in appetizers and salads. A variety of side dishes are served with hot - fried potatoes, rice, cauliflower or fried bananas. Sour cream, cilantro greens, finely chopped onions and lemon juice will be present on the table.
Drink all this splendor with fruit juices, tequila or beer, in which add a few drops of lemon and a pinch of salt. And hot chocolate is the best choice for breakfast.
