Mexican food (Part 2)

April 24th, 2007

Chilli
Cookery knows more than 60 varieties of chili peppers, from Anaheims, which is very mild to spicy hot habaneras. Jalapenos are the most well-known and recognizable, alongside chipotles–jalapenos that have been dried and smoked–the primary flavor in sauce. A favorite Mexican first dish, Chiles Rellenos, features large poblano chilies stuffed with cheese or spicy meat, which is known as picadillo. The version of these is an American bar-menu staple Jalapeno popper.
On the other hand, Chilli, as in spicy chilli con carne, is completely American version non related to the Mexican pepper, and not a Mexican dish. Other non-traditional, “gringo” kinds of Mexican food include the American-born nacho and refried beans, a Tex-Mex revision of frijoles refritos. Tex-Mex food are elements of the Mexican culture, especially its cuisine and the music which has received a wide spread in Texas, it is a modern hybrid incorporating southwestern cowboy food. Mexican dishes never include American yellow cheese. Queso Monterey, Queso Chihuahua and Queso Fresco are used instead.
