What are your favorite Mexican dishes?

spaghetti

>>21513338 (OP)
tequila

>>21513338 (OP)
mole. I went to this mole spot once that had many to choose from. iirc it was a white mole made out of pepitas. it was fucking delicious.

>>21513356
also tamales, chile rellenos, pan dulce, gorditas, agua fresca, tacos, there's a lot of good stuff

>>21513364
"taco" is very vague though

i never go to real deal mex spots but torta milanesa is pretty good

>>21513367
you can do anything as a taco. potato taco, chicken, beef, tongue, banana even. There's lots of different types of meats and different ways to prepare them, with various marinades and cooking methods. Especially when it comes to mexican tacos. They'll dig a hole in the ground and slowcook a whole goat in some giant metal tub with all these herbs, broths and spices. They don't fuck around lol.

probably mole, pretty much the holy grail of sauces

pozole roja
chile rellenos
mole enchiladas

ITT poor people. Mexican food is dog shit. Poverty food only enjoyed by nasty people with zero standards.

I like chili colorado. I had a really good one at a restaurant recently but it's two hours away

For me, it's Mole Blanco

>>21513666
Sorry, satan, that shit looks bland as hell.

That really thin preseasoned skirt steak from the Mexican meat market seared over charcoal

>>21513666
>tongue tacos
Yeah nah.

>>21513814
>Sorry, satan, that shit looks bland as hell.
Don't worry. I got you senpai.

camarones a la diabla or crispy tripitas tacos. queso birria is also pretty dank

>>21513338 (OP)
Birria de res, carnitas, al pastor, chile relleno, ceviche

Yeah whatever fag

Chiles en nogada done right

>>21514641
such a unique dish
Is there anything else like it in Mexico?

idk, hard to say when theyre all the same thing. an enchilada is just a fajita without an oven. leave it open and its a taco, etc
mexican food is so gay lmao

>>21513380
That's not mexican.

>>21513830
I'm a picky eater and honestly it isn't that bad. I still prefer chorizo though.

>>21514758
Yes it is

>>21513338 (OP)
>Manchamanteles
Why is it called that? It literally translates into "clothstainer" from spanish. Ironically it just looks like a stew while nachos deserve the name more.

For me, it's pipian with pork meat

>>21515247
No, it's not.

I like enchiladas. Both beef and cheese. And I like enchiladas rancheras especially

Ceviche tostadas

Do you think these people can still properly taste softer or subtle flavour? Looks like all of their food is acidic and hot, very hot. If they use to eat this stuff all their life, would food from other countries taste bland by comparative?

>>21513828
Yep.

>>21515618
Yep. Goes both ways, too. If you only eat delicate foods, you won't be able to discern the subtlety of spicy food and it will just seem like an overpowering cacophony.

I eat a lot of thai/laos food which is very hot as well. I lose/gain taste/tolerance all the time when I take breaks from either side of the spectrum.

>>21515677
that said, it's fairly easy to maintain a discerning pallet for both if you want to be cheffy

>>21515677
Mexican food isn't all spicy though
But it's acidic more often than not

I like tacos arabes but even though my town is overrun by latinks none of them are from the right part of mexico so I can't get them from a restaurant.

Pollo pibil

I like their creampies

>>21515618
Im literally a super taster and I love drinking hot sauce
>>21515677
nah you're probably just a nostalgia pilled latino, I like english food too. hard to beat fish and chips, or corned beef and boiled cabbage.
>>21515680
where do you live? acidic mexican food sounds great desu.

also heres the best mexian dish hands down

>>21516351
I also like both Euro cuisines and Mexican, Thai, Indian, etc. foods
But European cuisines are generally more flavorful than stereotyped : my uncle was a gourmet French cook and his food had deep, rich, flavors
And German food is similar in that regard.

>>21516337
It's cochinitas pibil

>>21516364
Cochinita is made with pork, there's a chicken version too
I like both, but prefer the latter since it's less greasy

>>21513356
Do mexicans really eat moles?

>>21516337
Poe-loe pibble?

>>21516433
poy-yo pee-ble

I have been meaning to try birria for a long time, it only really started getting pushed as a meme food like ten years ago and I always thought an au jus sandwich concept with tacos sounded good but haven't gotten around to trying them. How are they? What are they like?

>>21513356
Mole in California is very hit-or-miss in terms of getting it sickly sweet or not. It's not even a spectrum. It's either "candy bar Mole" or cocoa/smoked pepper based Mole. And I was sort of disappointed to find that in many cases they just use smoked peppers and leave out cocoa altogether since it's more expensive.

I swear to god theres nothing like good mexican food, maybe italian cuisine is great but holy fuck getting tacos after getting shitfaced at the club and making friends with everyone else there is god tier life experience

>>21516854
>making friends with everyone else there
How do I do this step?

>>21516867
Be secure and easy going, that helps.
I used to be really shy. One day I thought to myself "If im shy in every social interaction where I dont know the other person, theres a very big chance this other person is nervous as well." I saw that as an advantage I could exploit
>Exploit how?
Well, if you know or assume the other party is as shy or even more shy than you, its very easy to just manipulate the conversation/topic to one you feel most comfortable.
Some NPC level conversation starters like weather, the experience you just lived (in the case of eating after the club) make it easier to "connect" to the other person with something relatable.
Everyone likes talking about themselves, just ask questions and try to guide the conversation so it feels natural to both parties, pretty easy if you just try.

>>21516736
Most places use beef, but its supposed to be goat. There is nothing special about a shredded beef taco and cheese with au juss. Pretty sure Mexican families only make it 2 to 3 times a year for get togethers.

>>21516896
Ahh, so pahloe as in off and aloe

I love a good steak burrito, but there are so many good Mexican dishes. It’s a top 5 cuisine in the world

Chiles en nogada

>>21517010
Wish we had more pics itt to display them than "Enchiladas/tacos rice and beans at a Mexican restaurant"

Tex-mex is good, the sort of mexican that goes on out around california way is fucking gross.

>>21518086
how many of you guys actually take photos of what you're about to eat? i know i don't

chilpachole ( shrimp, crab, fish broth )

>>21513338 (OP)
I’d kill a man for a beef empanada

closes thing to Mexican food ive ever had is Chili Con Carne.
Then again, i live almost 6000 miles from Mexico, do they have an equivalent of pickled herring on buttered rye bread?

Its an insanely overrated dish imo only being pushed because birria tacos were popular in LA and Austin foodtrucks for awhile. Every time I try it the consoome's too hot (heat, not spice) and the whole thing is just really gooey and salty. Avoid birria ramen that shit is gross

>>21523557
>birria tacos were popular in LA and Austin
What kind of birria is sold there? Because in Mexico there are two kinds, beef and lamb, and both of them had their own particularities.

birria should be lamb, not beef, but that's my personal opinion, thank you for reading my blog.

I wouldn't want to be in the same room as you guys after you ate this crap. Imagine the smell.

>>21523774
Agree that lamb birria is the original one, but I don't think americans are getting that. Lamb is not a meat usually consumed by them, after all.

>>21523782
I thought lamb was quite common in the U.S.A, didn't know that

>>21523770
Beef is what you generally get here @ food trucks and Tex-Mex places

grasshoppers are better but they are quite expensive now

burrito

>>21523799
Lamb is not unheard of but it's uncommon in daily American cuisine. If you eat at restaurants, you are more likely to find it at Middle Eastern places or even Indian places. Lamb chops are still considered a normal American dish but relatively few places prepare them. I think it just comes down to the primacy of beef, which has even overtaken AUS/NZ, formerly (?) the world's most notable sheep herders.

For Americans, since they are not allowed to have proper Greek pork gyros due to jewish-turkish dietary concerns, much of the gyros were formerly lamb, but now are beef or a "beef-lamb blend" instead.

So yes, lamb is now a specialty meat from the butcher, much like horses in Spain, or dog/human cadavers in England.

>>21523844
lamb should be the real birria, not beef

Cool. Another reason to add to the list of why I hate michigan. Thanks anon.

Your on the list now, too.

For me, it is the Mexican Pizza.

All the ones made using ICE.

What are some good lesser known moles?

The best Mexican dish I've had I can't remember its name but it was chicken and onions in some sort of creamy white sauce. It was very nice. Anyone know what this might be?
Chile rellenos are extremely good if made properly. Camarones a la diabla are good too.

>>21516485
I'm pretty sure this is South of the Border Mexican Restaurant. I can recognize the plates. Absolute dog shit TexMex for white boomers.

>>21528579
Was it on rice? Every Mexican restaurant seems to have their own mock hibachi meal with meat/veg/queso on a bed of rice now

>>21513355

yeah, no, you're retarded. french food is not the end all to be all. plenty of food is better than french slop.
you do you if it helps you sleep better at night, but we all know the truth...french cuisine is absolute shit.

How the hell are guajillo smokey? They're fruity with some actual heat. Also, unless you're a pepperhead, you aren't getting flavor out of an Arbol. Those fuck are just straight heat.

Also, while I'm here, what the fuck is the point of chili negro? It tastes like straight up dirt. Spicy dirt, but not even that spicy, and also just fuckin' dirt.

>>21513338 (OP)
I like carnitas and enchiladas with chicken or pork and either salsa verde or mole negro.

Taco salad

refried beans are pretty based

Where does this meme come from? Pork is one of the most consumed meats here.

>>21536390
The backhoe curry is awesome even if it would give me diarrhea.

are chapulines really the food of the gods mexibros?

>>21537180
Nah, chapulines just taste like salty fried anchovies.

So uhhh got any Mexican dishes which call for cheese paste?

It's just a tostada with "taco sauce" and cheese. Most grocery stores sell tostada shells if you're not inclined to make your own.
