Shrimp Marinara – How to make authentic Italian marinara sauce

Shrimp Marinara – How to make authentic Italian marinara sauce from scratch
Marinara (mariner’s) sauce is a southern Italian tomato sauce usually made with tomatoes, garlic, herbs, and onions. Its many variations can include the addition of capers, olives and spices.
Traditional southern Italian cuisine uses this sauce to add flavor to pasta, rice, seafood and pizza.This sauce is also widely used in Italian-American cuisine, which has diverged significantly from its Old World origins.
Italians refer to marinara sauce only in association with other recipes. For instance, spaghetti alla marinara literally translates to “spaghetti mariner’s style” (from the adjective marinara with the feminine suffix -a pertaining to salsa, Italian for sauce), but tomato sauce alone in Italy is called sugo/salsa al/di pomodoro or pomarola.

Outside of the US, this is referred to as Neapolitan sauce or Napoli sauce, and Marinara sauce refers to a sauce containing seafood.

Origin

At least two folk theories are given as to the origin of this sauce: One says cooks aboard Neapolitan ships invented marinara sauce in the mid-16th century after Spaniards introduced the tomato (a New World fruit) to Europe. The original recipe did not contain seafood, so it was resistant to spoilage due to the high acid content of tomatoes. This made it ideal for lengthy sea voyages hundreds of years before refrigeration methods were invented. Another theory states this was a sauce prepared by the wives of Neapolitan sailors upon their return from sea. An Australian folk theory accounts that seafood marinara sauce was the first tomato-based pasta sauce popularized in the US, and with the explosion in popularity of Italian cuisine, the name “marinara sauce” became a misnomenclature for Neapolitan sauce or salsa Napolitana. In Australia, where it has been introduced by Italian Australians, marinara sauce always includes seafood (‘marine’), except at the American fast food chain, Subway.
Historically, however, the first Italian cookbook to include tomato sauce, Lo Scalo alla Moderna (The Modern Steward), was written by Italian chef Antonio Latini and was published in two volumes in 1692 and 1694. Latini served as the Steward of the First Minister to the Spanish Viceroy of Naples. This early tomato sauce was more like a modern tomato salsa.

Authentic Huevos Rancheros - Eggs with Spicy Mexican Sauce

Authentic Huevos Rancheros Recipe – Mexican Eggs with Ranchero Sauce


Huevos rancheros ( "rancher's eggs") is a popular breakfast dish consisting of eggs served in the style of the traditional large mid-morning fare on rural Mexican farms. The basic dish consists of fried eggs served upon lightly fried corn tortillas topped with a tomato-chili sauce. Refried beans, Mexican-style rice, slices of avocado, or guacamole are common accompaniments.

Variations

As the popularity of the dish spread beyond Mexico, variations using wheat flour tortillas instead of corn and pureed chile or enchilada sauce instead of tomato-chile salsa have appeared. Non-Mexican additions such as cheese, sour cream, and lettuce also have become common beyond the dish's native range. "Huevos divorciados", divorced eggs, are simply two eggs served in the usual style, but with a different sauce for each, usually a red and a green chile.

The Real Academia Española defines the word enchilada, as used in Mexico, as a rolled maize tortilla stuffed with meat and covered with a tomato and chile sauce. Enchilada is the past participle of Spanish enchilar, "to add chile pepper to", literally to "season (or decorate) with chile."

History

Enchiladas originated in Mexico, where the practice of rolling tortillas around other food dates back at least to Mayan times.The people living in the lake region of the Valley of Mexico traditionally ate corn tortillas folded or rolled around small fish. Writing at the time of the Spanish conquistadors, Bernal Díaz del Castillo documented a feast enjoyed by Europeans hosted by Hernán Cortés in Coyoacán, which included foods served in corn tortillas. (Note that the native Nahuatl name for the flat corn bread used was tlaxcalli; the Spanish give it the name tortilla.) The Nahuatl word for enchilda is chīllapītzalli [t͡ʃiːlːapiː't͡salːi] which is formed of the Nahuatl word for "chili", chīlli ['t͡ʃiːlːi] and the Nahuatl word for "flute", tlapītzalli [t͡ɬapiː't͡salːi]. In the 19th century, as Mexican cuisine was being memorialized, enchiladas were mentioned in the first Mexican cookbook, El cocinero mexicano ("The Mexican Chef"), published in 1831, and in Mariano Galvan Rivera's Diccionario de Cocina, published in 1845.An early mention, in English, is a 1914 recipe found in California Mexican-Spanish Cookbook, by Bertha Haffner Ginger.

Chipotle Salsa - Hot Spicy Mexican Salsa - Easy recipe

A chipotle (pron.: /tʃɨˈpoʊtleɪ/ chiPOtlay; Spanish: [tʃiˈpotle]), or chilpotle, which comes from the Nahuatl word chilpoctli meaning "smoked chili pepper" is a smoke-dried jalapeño. It is a chili used primarily in Mexican and Mexican-inspired cuisines, such as Mexican-American and Tex-Mex. Varieties of jalapeño vary in size and heat. In Mexico, the jalapeño is also known as the cuaresmeño and gordo. Until recently, chipotles were largely found in the markets of central and southern Mexico. As Mexican food became more popular abroad, especially in the upper nations of North America, jalapeño production and processing began to expand into northern Mexico to serve the southwestern United States, and eventually processing occurred in the United States and other places such as China. Its heat is similar to that of the Espelette pepper, jalapeño, Guajillo chili, Hungarian wax pepper, New Mexican varieties of the Anaheim pepper, and Tabasco sauce.
