  • The Early Path, from the Sacred to the Profane in Fermented Beverages in New Galicia, New Spain (Mexico), Seventeenth to Eighteenth Century
    The Early Path, from the Sacred to the Profane in Fermented Beverages in New Galicia, New Spain (Mexico), Seventeenth to Eighteenth Century María de la Paz SOLANO PÉREZ The Beginning of the Path: Introduction From an Ethno-historical perspective, the objectives of the present paper are to show changes in perceptions of fermented beverages, as they lost their sacral nature in a good part of the baroque society of New Spain’s Viceroyalty,1 turn- ing into little more than profane beverages in the eye of the law of the Spanish crown for the new American territories, specifically for the Kingdom of New Galicia during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, within the New Spain viceroyalty. At the time the newly profane beverages were discredited in urban places, were subject to displacement by distilled beverages, being introduced from both oceans – from the Atlantic by the way of the Metropolis, and from the Pacific through the Manilla Galleon. The new distilled beverages converged in western New Spain, where Guadalajara was the economic, political, religious, and cultural centre. To begin with, it is necessary to stress that the fermentation process has been used for many purposes since ancient times. Most notably, it has been used in medicine, in nutrition, and as part of religion and rituality for most societies around the world. 1 This area, after its independence process in the beginning of the nineteenth century, was known as Mexico. Before this date, it belonged to the Spanish Crown as New Spain, also as part of other territories situated along the American continent.

Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Hidalgo, Mineral de la Reforma, 78557 Hidalgo, Mexico; fi[email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 24 February 2020; Accepted: 11 March 2020; Published: 20 March 2020 Abstract: Pulque is a beverage that has been prepared in Mexico since pre-Hispanic times from the fermented sap of more than 30 species of wild and domesticated agaves. We conducted studies in two communities of the state of Michoacán, in central-western Mexico, where we documented its traditional preparation and analyzed the relationship between preparation conditions and the composition and dynamics of microbiological communities, as well as the physical and chemical characteristics of the beverage. In one of the communities, Santiago Undameo (SU), people boil the sap before inoculating it with pulque inoculum; this action causes this local pulque to be sweeter, less acidic, and poorer in bacteria and yeast diversity than in the other community, Tarimbaro (T), where the agave sap is not boiled and where the pulque has more diversity of microorganisms than in SU. Fermentation management, particularly boiling of the agave sap, influences the dynamics and diversity of microbial communities in the beverage. Keywords: agave sap; probiotics; traditional knowledge; biocultural diversity 1.

  • San Miguel De Allende
    San Miguel de Allende INTRODUCTION San Miguel’s traditional cuisine derives from a blend of indigenous and European flavors, and incorporates ingredients from throughout the Mexican plateau, including the states of Queretaro, Jalisco, Michoacan and San Luis Potosi. Besides traditional foods, in San Miguel you can also enjoy international and gourmet cuisine. Some foods to try on your visit include enchiladas mineras, pacholas, and fiambre. Enchiladas mineras (miner’s enchiladas) is a dish, which is hearty enough to satisfy a miner’s large appetite. These are fried tortillas filled with cheese or chicken, bathed in a sauce made from guajillo chile, and topped with lettuce and fried carrots and potatoes. Pacholas are deep fried ground beef patties. Fiambre is made with different meats (beef, chicken and pork), and fruit and vegetables served on a bed of lettuce and topped with vinaigrette. Among the traditional drinks of Guanajuato state, you’ll find agua de betabel (beet flavored water), and two different fermented drinks: colonche, which is made with prickly pear, and cebadina, a concoction of barley water, tamarind and jamaica (hibiscus) with baking soda added when it’s served to make it fizzy. Cebadina is reputed to be a great hangover remedy. For dessert, try tumbagones, a tube-shaped pastry made with green tomatoes and dusted withpowdered sugar. Two types of traditional candies you should look out for are cajeta de Celaya, a caramel made with goat’s milk, and fresas cristalizadas (crystallized strawberries). For traditional dining, head to the Mercado Ignacio Ramirez, where you will encounter a feast of fragrances and colors.
