Rob: Hi Selma, how are you?

Selma: Oh hi Rob! I’m doing well, thanks. Just finished that essay that’s due in tomorrow. It was a tough topic!

Rob: Tell me about it. It took me ages. So, listen, I wanted to ask you about Netflix. You subscribe to it, don’t you?

Selma: I do, yes.

Rob: I’m thinking about signing up, but I wanted to get your view on it. Is it worth the money?

Selma: I really think it is, although I don’t know that everyone would agree with me. I’m a huge fan of crime series, so there’s nothing I love more than binge-watching a whole series in a day in my pijamas.

Rob: I keep reading about some really interesting films coming up on there – there was that Martin Scorsese film recently?

Selma: Oh yes, The Irishman. I haven’t seen it yet, but Jane loved it and said it was some of his best work. So, it’s on my list. But absolutely everything is covered. There’s Horror, Thrillers, Comedy, Cartoons, you name it. I’ve seen some really thought-provoking documentaries on there recently. There’s Saving Capitalism by Robert Reich which takes a really good look at the system we live in and its problems and then makes suggestions for how to fix it. I watched What The Health which looks at the links between the food industry and healthcare. I’ve had a lot of discussions with other students about that one.

Rob: Is there much music stuff on there?

Selma: Loads! Film from concerts, documentaries about Bowie, Oasis, Bob Dylan… you like Hip Hop, don’t you? There is a great series called Hip Hop Evolutionthat goes into how it all started. It’s fascinating. What I really like about Netflix though is because there’s such a huge audience, there’s a lot of representation of different groups in society. There are loads of foreign films, there’s LGBTQ themes, Black and Asian directors. Something for everyone. Did you hear about Squid Game?

Rob: Oh yeah, the Korean series?

Selma: Yes, it was brilliant and completely unlike anything you’d see over here.

LOS CHILES MEXICANOS 1.

En México todo el mundo, o casi todo el mundo, come chile. Sin importar esto, la cocina del chile es, estrictamente hablando, nacional. Es lo que nos define, aunque no de un modo exclusivo, frente a otras dietas y cocinas del mundo.

La multiplicidad de moles, muchos de ellos, como hemos visto, ya de uso corriente entre los antiguos mexicanos, aun cuando todavía no fueran “transmutados” por la presencia de los ingredientes traídos por los españoles, es formidable. Hay mole amarillito; mole negro, mole de olla, mole verde, mole de hierbas, pipián, manchamanteles, xoloztle, chorreado, embarrado, poblano, chimole…

Y en cuanto a las salsas…

Un recuento del Museo Nacional de Culturas Populares consigna más de cuarenta preparadas únicamente con chiles de fácil adquisición en el mercado. Nada más con el chile serrano pueden hacerse nueve salsas distintas: cruda, cocida, frita, asada, verde, roja, “mexicana” etc., según la enumeración hecha por ese omnívoro historiador de las comidas que es José N. lturriaga; añadiríamos las variaciones que se pueden lograr si a cada una de ellas se le añade o no ajo, o cebolla, o cilantro, según.

Por otra parte, el chile en México ha llegado a ser casi un símbolo patrio. Los mexicanos no sólo lo emplean en la mayoría de los platillos que consumen, sino que se identifican vital, ontológicamente con él.

La diversidad y la riqueza de los platillos preparados con este producto es impresionante, desde los típicos y consistentes moles de Puebla, Oaxaca y Yucatán, para hablar sólo de los más conocidos, hasta las refinadas salsas y adobos del Estado de México, Guadalajara o San Luis Potosí, la variedad de gustos, sabores e ingredientes que en las cocinas del país se emplean en conjunción con los diferentes chiles ha permitido el desarrollo de una gastronomía característica, sensual e incitante, de un gusto peculiar, que no obstante las transformaciones y las influencias, conserva una tónica particular, debida...
