ingredients such as: milk, wheat flour, chicken and beef. In addition, Spanish gastronomy itself had
a strong influence of Arab flavors, thanks to the conquest of the Iberian Peninsula by the Moors
centuries.

around the world were contributing their own ingredients and products to Mexican food, resulting
in one of the cuisines Most varied from all over the world.
