Mexico
Food and wine in Mexico, America, and Mexican food history.
Chicken and Spanish rice
This recipe will quickly become a family favorite once you give it a try.
Torrijas
This fried bread dessert is another sweet favorite for lovers of Spanish or Mexican cuisine. Unbeatable.
Leche frita
Few cultures would be adventurous enough to call a recipe 'fried milk', especially since it's made by boiling and frying. But that's the basis of this delectable treat. Great desserts don't come any easier than this one.
Ensaimadas
This sweet bread recipe will have everyone begging to go for those servings recommended by the food pyramid. Superb.
Crema Catalana
An import from the Catalan region of Spain, this creamy dessert is easy to prepare and even easier to eat. Delicious.
Cinnamon lemon flan
Calling flan a caramel custard is to do it an injustice. No mere pudding, this traditional Mexican dessert, from Spanish origins, is the crème de la crème of sweets. Of course, not surprisingly, there are a hundred and one variations on the basic recipe. But sometimes the original is so much more than one can expect, to alter it is to approach cooking blasphemy.
Café Mexicano
Mexico enjoys a fine chocolate coffee and they do so especially at Christmas. You can also enjoy this Mexican coffee.

Guacamole
