Tex-Mex means “Texan" + “Mexican” which refers to the blend of American and Mexican culinary traditions as one distinctive style.
Mexican culture and food heavily influenced the evolution of Texas cuisine, and over time, American and Mexican cooking methods adapted to suit Texan tastes. Originating with the Tejano people, the hallmarks of Tex-Mex include yellow cheese, flour tortillas, ground beef, chili-based sauces, and plates served with rice and beans. In Texas, locals often say the best way to judge a Tex-Mex restaurant is by the queso and the salsa.
