Corn and beans are staple foods of Mexico, and a large number of recipes will incorporate these basics. Tomatoes grow in plenty, as do avocados, and any fan of traditional Mexican food will swear by authentic recipes for salsa and guacamole. Mexicans also use a variety of spices in their cooking, so chili, cumin, oregano and cilantro will jostle for room in most recipes, and jalapeños and Chipotle, will raise the heat factor.
