Baku Kitchen! An independent reference of traditional food

Mexico

Mexico’s food is built around corn, chiles, and ancient techniques; UNESCO-listed cuisine of tacos, complex moles, and vibrant street antojitos. Look for Tacos al pastor (chile-marinated pork shaved from a spit, with pineapple and cilantro), Mole poblano (chicken in complex chile-chocolate sauce of many ingredients) and Pozole (hominy and pork soup garnished with radish, cabbage, lime). Lebanese immigrants who settled in Puebla in the 1920s and 1930s brought spit-roasted shawarma; Mexican cooks swapped lamb for chili-marinated pork.
