Common Questions
Start with our Mexican Cooking Basics guide, which covers the techniques and pantry staples behind the recipes in this index. If a recipe calls for a chile you don’t know, you will find it in the guide with an explanation of how to identify and use each one.
Salsas are the best starting point because salsas are the fundamental building blocks of Mexican cooking. Try our salsa verde which only needs five ingredients. Easy main dishes are huevos rancheros and quesadillas.
For a fancy dinner party, try the beef tenderloin in a three chile sauce with a classic margarita. Serve a tres leches cake for dessert.
