An Article about some Typical Mexican Food

    One of the main ingredients of Mexican food is corn. This is no surprise, as it is thought that corn originated in Mexico. When the Spanish conquistadors colonized Mexico, they found that indigenous Mexicans ate mainly corn-based dishes with a variety of spices and chili peppers. Beans, tomatoes, and cactus were also some of the most important components of Mexican food. A variety of fruits and rarer ingredients (such as huitlacoche, agave, and achiote) were also present during that historical period. It is also important to mention that two staples of world cuisine, vanilla and chocolate, originated in Mexico and were widely used by indigenous Mexicans at the time of the Spanish conquest. Modern Mexican food is a result of indigenous Mexican cuisine with the ingredients and techniques introduced by the Spaniards (such as the introduction of wheat, olive oil, and various other ingredients that were unknown in the New World.)

    Corn and beans are, without a question, the most important components of Mexican food. Masa, a corn-based dough, is the base for some of the most popular Mexican dishes, such as tamales, tortillas, and tortilla-based dishes. Mexican food is extremely varied, considered one of the most varied cuisines in the world (along with Chinese and Indian food.) Mexican food typically uses chili peppers and a variety of spices that are unique to the region (such as epazote or chipotle.) Mexican food is also unique in that it uses ingredients such as chocolate or cinnamon in unconventional ways.

    Mexican food varies greatly depending on the region. Takis Chips are extremely popular in the United States. Many so-called staples of Mexican food can be very general and change wildly depending on the region. For example, tacos are known worldwide. This simple dish, made out of a tortilla with some kind of filling, can use countless toppings, sauces, and fillings. Near the coasts, fish or shrimp tacos are extremely popular, while in the cattle-farming north, tacos are almost exclusively beef-based.

If you have a sweet tooth I recommend you try some delicious Mexican Candy or some Mexican Chocolate. If you like hot drinks, Mexican Hot Chocolate is right up your alley.

Now we can't forget the famous hot sauces. You can try some scrumptious Cholula Hot Sauce to accompany some nice tortillas. 

3 Steps to take before you hire a Web Design Company

When deciding to put your business online the design of your website is something that should not be taken lightly. Once you put something online and put your business name and reputation behind it it's going to be there for the world to see. So you want to make sure that your online presence is in sync with your offline presence and neither one or the other is putting each other at risk.

With many people going online to check your website and do their due dilligence before doing business with you, it is an absolute neccesity for you to have a professional website.

I can't tell you how many times I have turned the other way from hiring a company based on their website.

What does it say about your company if you are not willing to invest in a professional website design?

Your website can either make or break a deal for you so you want to make sure you are ahead of the curve.
Here are a few tips to make sure you hire the right company:

1. First of all look at their website. Look to see if the web design company has taken the time to design a professional website for themselves. This is one of the first signs to know if you are dealing with someone who is serious and knows what they are talking about.

If the web design company themselves have a poorly designed website, RUN!

2. Check their portfolio. If you are considering hiring a web design company one of the first things you should do is check their portfolio. It is rare nowadays to find a web design company who does not have their portfolio prominantely displayed on their website.

If for some strange reason they do not have a portfolio page again, RUN!

3. Do they have their phone number readily available? The last thing you want to do is hire a company who you can't reach directly should you have any issues, questions, or changes you want made to your website.

Do not hire a company who's only form of communication is email. This is a surefire way to get scammed and lose your money. If they are not willing to take your phone calls, RUN!

Follow these 3 steps before you pull the triger on hiring a web design company.
