The food of the Mexicans is usually very varied, in the dishes they consume there are usually many colors and there are things that can not be missing so that the dish is called a Mexican dish.
Things that can not be missing at the time of Mexican food:
The tortilla:The tortilla is for Mexicans the “our daily bread”. Throughout the country this food is consumed in one way or another, which does not distinguish classes and is so versatile that it can be accompanied by almost any ingredient
The chile: Without a doubt, chili is one of the most consumed ingredients by the Mexican, it is a cultural issue. And although sometimes we are suffering from the spicy, it has been discovered that chili has several beneficial properties. Its name comes from Nahuatl ‘chili’ and has a great diversity of species. Among the best known in Mexico are the pasilla, habanero, jalapeño, serrano, tree, guajillo, ancho, etc. And each one is used in the best way in thousands of stews and / or sauces; either fresh or dried.
Lemon: In Mexico we put lemon to a large part of our food. In Mexico, lemon is a necessity, not an ingredient in Mexican cuisine. If you think about it, the amount of lemon we use is quite a lot: we put lemon on the fruit, vegetables, tacos, soups, consommé, seafood, salads, meats, alcoholic beverages and even snacks like potatoes. Mexican lemon belongs to the citrus family. We identify them by their intense green color, but they really are yellowish green when ripe. Colima is the Mexican state that occupies the first place in the production of lemon. Because it is a tree that produces fruit almost all year round, it is a very profitable product. That is why among some Colombians it is known as "the green gold".
These are just some examples of the great variety that make up Mexican cuisine, the cuisine of the country is very varied and also varies from state to state.
