influences. Among
the most
important dishes
are: los cabuches,
the flowers
of the
barrel cactus; el asado de la boda, pork
cooked with
chili ancho; zacahuil, tamales
stuffed with
pork; San Luis
Potosi-style
cheese and
chicken tacos,
which are served
with carrots,
green beans,
potatoes and
Parmesan cheese;
San Luis Potosi-style
fiambre; gorditas; and
the famous
enchiladas potosinas, which are made
with red chili
pepper and
served with
refried beans
and guacamole.
Among the
most exquisite
desserts are queso de tuna (a
prickly pear
custard) and
sweets made of
goat’s milk,
such as natillas
and cajetas.
