The tlacoyo is part of the Mexican gastronomy originating in the center of the country and dates back to before the arrival of the Spaniards to the American territory.
A closer look at three tlacoyos in a plate Together with sopes, huaraches and gorditas, tlacoyos are similar traditional Mexican snacks, made with corn, beans and chili, which are not only healthy but also delicious!
In particular, the tlacoyo consists of a kind of oval pie made of nixtamalized blue corn that can be filled with different foods of vegetable or animal origin, such as beans, lima beans, green peas, chicharrón or cottage cheese.
At the moment of serving, cream, cheese, salsa, nopales, onion and cilantro are usually added.
It is believed that tlacoyo was used by the indigenous people of Mesoamerica as "itacate" when they made long trips.
Its name comes from the Nahuatl tlaoyo which means "shelled corn patty".
In tlaolli it means "dried corn kernels" and in tlacualli it means "food".
Tlacoyos are a dish of pre-Hispanic origin that originally had no dairy ingredients, such as cream or cheese, which were incorporated after the arrival of the Spaniards. However, it is believed that the rest of the ingredients are preserved as they were originally prepared, handmade and cooked on a comal.

If you want annoying and hilarious, during the Civil War section, kotkin constantly rags on the Reds for having commissars, being forced to expropriate food to feed the red army, and generally being a messy bitch during its fight to survive then mentions quickly that literally all the factions are also doing the exact same thing (and worse before moving on with little elabotation). He even calls Alexander Kolchak "a man of Valor and patriotism" (also heaps praise on other counter-revolutionary figures of the civil war in contrast to how he always smears the communists) while quietly slipping in that Kolchak's favorite book was "reputed to be" the protocols of the elders of zion.
