| | Mexico's jumbled topography has limited the "homogenization" of dishes in terms of their ingredients and preparation. | | | The cuisine of Mexico is delightfully diverse, strongly regional and almost always bold (though not necessarily hot) in flavor. | | | The national spirit of Mexico is distilled from the fermented juice of the crushed, pineapple-like base of the Agave cactus. |

| | New Mexico Cuisine |
| | The "Corn Cuisine" of the Southwest includes red, yellow, and the distinctive New Mexico blue corn, that have all been cultivated for centuries. | | | Although these crops were domesticated in Mexico and Central America, they had moved north to what is now New Mexico long before the Spanish arrived, so it is no surprise that these foods became the foundation of New Mexican cuisine. | | | By Nancy Gerlach R.D. The cuisine of New Mexico is a unique blend of three different cultures: Native American, Mexican and European. |

| | MEXICO CITY -- Like many people in his town in the southern Mexico highlands, Gerardo Carrillo looks forward to harvest time in August. | | | As Mexico's centuries-old tradition of eating bugs becomes more lucrative -- maguey worms and ant eggs are showing up as exotic fare at expensive restaurants -- researchers are trying to convince poor villages to cash in on these pests as a means of income. | | | Farmers on the outskirts of Mexico City were spending large amounts of money on pesticides to kill grasshoppers, Garcia Oviedo said, until they found they could get more money for the edible bugs than for their crops. |

| | The cuisine of Mexico, based on corn, is one of the world´s oldest, dating back to cultures that flourished over 6000 years ago, and although corn was the mainstay of the ancient Mexican diet (it was even worshipped as a god in early times), many other foods in current use were also included. | | | Modern Mexican cuisine includes countless preparations of chicken, beef, pork, veal, lamb and seafood. | | | The beans were crushed and steeped in boiling water, sweetened with honey and spiced with cinnamon and vanilla. |

| | Ethnic Cuisine |
| | The melding of cultures contributed significantly to the melding of foods and food preparation in Mexico, often referred to as mestizaje, or "mixing." Corn, a staple for over 4,000 years, is the backbone of the diet. | | | Foodies traveling through Mexico should add the mercado to their list of requisite stops: some of the best can be found in Oaxaca, Guanajuato, Toluca and Mexico City. | | | Anyone looking for the essence of Mexico in one night need look no further than the Sheraton's "Sabores de Mexico." This is one food and dance experience which is as much substance as style and makes for a delightful evening. |

| | Although mistakenly referred to as "Mexican food" or "Tex-Mex," the dishes commonly identified with New Mexico reflect a blend of Hispanic and Indian cultures. | | | Similar to a burrito, the enchilada is a corn tortilla smothered in tangy green or red chile sauce and piled with cheese, onions, lettuce, green pepper and ground meat. | | | The Navajo taco is an open-faced taco heaped with fresh lettuce, tomatoes, refried beans, guacamole, a dab of sour cream and your choice of red or green chile--all served on a flat, puffy tortilla or a piece of fry bread. |

| | Eat Smart in Mexico |
| | While most Mexico guides devote a section to eating, authors Joan and David Peterson see food as an integral part of the journey, the very basis of travel, and their new guide “Eat Smart in Mexico” (1998, Ginkgo Press, $12.95) reflects that sensibility. | | | Individual chapters cover such topics as the history of the country’s cuisine, regional foods, how to shop in the local markets, mail-order sources for suppliers of ingredients, and a collection of recipes for typical dishes found in that country. | | | Otherwise, the authors include an informative and extensive history of the cuisine; a second on regional foods; a less successful section of a few recipes; a very brief chapter on shopping in Mexican food markets; another on mail order suppliers, cooking schools, and organizations; and a handy guide to helpful phrases. |
