Carnitas: Pork slowly cooked until tender, traditionally in its own fat, with some pieces allowed to brown or crisp. Carnitas are strongly associated with Michoacán. Dedicated carnitas shops may offer different cuts and textures rather than simply "pork." Maciza generally refers to leaner meat, cueritos to skin and buche to stomach. Carnitas may also be sold by weight for groups and takeout. On this menu as: Pulpo estilo Carnitas.
Ceviche & aguachile: Ceviche combines seafood with citrus juice and ingredients such as onion, chile, cilantro and tomato. Recipes vary throughout Mexico's coastal regions. The acid changes the texture and appearance of raw seafood, but it does not make raw seafood microbiologically equivalent to cooking it with heat. Aguachile, particularly associated with Sinaloa, is commonly made from raw shrimp dressed shortly before serving with lime, fresh chiles, cucumber and red onion. It can be seriously hot. Cóctel de camarón is a shrimp cocktail commonly served in a tomato-based sauce, while campechana usually combines several kinds of seafood. On this menu as: Aguachile de King Crab de Alaska.
Torta: A Mexican sandwich, usually made on a bolillo, telera or another soft roll. Fillings can include milanesa, ham, carnitas, al pastor, eggs, avocado, beans, jalapeños and cheese. Several regional sandwiches belong to the larger torta family. Guadalajara's torta ahogada is "drowned" in sauce. Puebla's cemita uses a distinctive sesame-seeded roll and may include quesillo and pápalo. A pambazo is dipped in red chile sauce and griddled. On this menu as: Tortas.
Guacamole: A preparation built around mashed or crushed avocado. Common restaurant versions add some combination of onion, cilantro, chile, lime and salt. Tomato appears in some versions and inspires surprisingly strong opinions. Guacamole may be chunky or smooth, prepared tableside or made ahead, and recipes vary enormously by region and kitchen. On this menu as: Guacamole Oaxaqueño.
Margarita & paloma: The margarita combines tequila with lime and orange liqueur, with countless frozen, flavored and restaurant variations. The paloma pairs tequila with grapefruit, commonly grapefruit soda, plus lime and salt. A cantarito expands the tequila-and-citrus idea with several citrus juices and is traditionally served in a clay cup. Tequila is an agave spirit produced under its own denomination of origin primarily from blue Weber agave. Mezcal is a broader family of Mexican agave spirits made from numerous agave varieties and in several regions. Oaxaca is particularly famous for mezcal. Smoke is common in many mezcals, but "mezcal means smoky tequila" is not a definition. On this menu as: Margaritas.
