Mexico. Associated with Mexico by the book is about Mexican cookery (Cooking, Mexican); the recipe itself names no place (confidence 0.4). "Associated with" means only that the evidence named here links this recipe to that place. A recipe isn't labelled as representing an entire country because a source associates it with one, and regional origins are kept where the source gives them.

Ingredients

Method

  1. Chop onion very fine and mix with mild cheese cut in small pieces in the proportion of one-third onion to two-thirds cheese;
  2. add a few ripe olives stoned and cut in half, and a pinch of oregano.
  3. Mix this together with a dressing made of oil and vinegar: two-thirds oil and one-third vinegar.
  4. Cut off the top of a small loaf of French bread the long way, dig out the center and fill with the cheese mixture.
  5. Put the crust back on top and cover with the mixture and bake in a rather quick oven.
