Tip 62 : How to learn a language through Literature and Poetry 

Los nachos son un snack popular alrededor del mundo, por lo que no es novedad que restaurantes, cafeterías y hasta las dulcerías de cines y centros de espectáculos los incluyan dentro de su carta.

Esta popularidad ha dado origen a diversas versiones de la receta, las cuales agregan condimentos u otros ingredientes dependiendo de la región en donde se preparen, además de que muchas eliminan el picante. Sin embargo, la constante siguen siendo el queso y la tortilla frita en trozos, también conocidos como totopos.

Una de las recetas más famosas de los nachos es la versión clásica estadounidense, la cual consta de totopos y queso tipo americano derretido; así como la versión del estado de Texas que agrega su tradicional chilli con carne.

Esta fama ha favorecido la creencia de que se trata de un platillo estadounidense, aunque su principal ingrediente: la tortilla y el chile, son dos alimentos distintivos de la comida mexicana.

Pese a la popularidad fomentada por la cocina Tex-Mex, los nachos son un platillo de mexicano, el cual fue creado por Ignacio Anaya un cocinero de Coahuila, quien creó el plato en 1943 en la ciudad de Piedras Negras.

Según la tradición oral de dicha ciudad, el platillo fue producto del ingenio de Nacho -sobrenombre utilizado comúnmente para a quienes se llaman Ignacio- quien trabajaba en un restaurante local y lo creó como forma de salir de un apuro.

El establecimiento, que normalmente atendía al público local, recibió la visita de un grupo de mujeres esposas de soldados estadounidenses que residían en la base aérea de Fort Duncan, quienes solicitaron algo para comer como aperitivo.

Esta petición puso en apuros al restaurante, pues en ese momento contaban con pocos insumos en la cocina. Fue entonces que Nacho decidió tomar unos totopos de maíz, mezclarlos con queso y jalapeños en rodajas, para luego meterlos al horno.
