Bifes a la criolla —thinly-sliced steaks stewed with onions, peppers, and potatoes— is a classic Argentine meal, one of those honest, unfussy, flavorful dishes that best characterizes Argentine cuisine. This isn’t the sort of meal you’ll generally tuck into in a restaurant. Instead,…

Marinating Habanero and onion in lime juice makes this a perfect condiment for Mexican food. Using purple onion creates a fabulous pink color that will leave everyone wondering what is being served. If you don't like your food "pica" omit the habanero chili and it will have a sweet taste. This is always served with Cochinita Pibil, the pork that is traditionally marinated and slow cooked in banana leaves.

It's hard to tell what gets you on that first bite into the fish taco. Is it the spiked acidity of the pickled jalapeños and red onions, the soft, warm beer-battered fish, the raw, spicy freshness of the radish, the creamy tartness of Baja tartar sauce, the perfumed cilantro?



I can't choose. I just know I love a good fish taco on a Sunday afternoon.…

The practice in Spain for the last meal the day consists of eating small dishes. The evening fare usually consists of what is known as tapas. It doesn’t matter whether you are in Spain’s far north in the Pyrenees or southern Spain near Gibraltar, the tapas is a ritual after dusk in lieu of a large dinner.

As with many cultural habits in Spain, folklore takes precedence in…

The "Tortilla Española" is favorite item on the menus of restaurants and cafes all over Spain. If you order this dish, do not expect the Mexican version of the flatbread that is made from corn. That version originally derived from the Mesoamerican peoples. That tortilla is not at all what…
