Foods like these tend to be very colorful because of
the rich variety of vegetables (among them are the chili
peppers,
green peppers, chilies,
broccoli,
cauliflower, and
radishes) and
meats in Mexican food. The French occupation of
Mexico influenced Mexican cuisine with
baked goods such as
sweet breads and the
bolillo (pronounced bo-lee-yo), a Mexican take on
the French roll.

Mexican cuisine has become
increasingly recognized in recent years as being
among the world's greatest cuisines, including
French and
Chinese cuisine. Corn is the grain
synonomous with Mexican cuisine, but rice is
today, an equal staple of the Mexican diet.
According to food writer Karen Hursh Graber, the
initial introduction of rice to Spain from North
Africa in the 4th Century led to the Spanish
introduction of rice into Mexico at the port of
Veracruz in the 1520s.
Most of today's Mexican food is based on
ancient traditions, such as the
Aztecs and
Maya, combined with culinary trends
introduced by Spanish colonists.
Quesadillas, for example, are a
flour or corn
tortilla with
cheese (often a Mexican-style soft farmer's
cheese such as
Queso Fresco or
Queso Oaxaca ), beef, chicken, pork, and so
on. The indigenous part of this and many other
traditional foods is the chili pepper. |
