Nachos originated in Piedras Negras, Mexico, in 1943. Ignacio 'Nacho' Anaya created the dish out of necessity for a group of American military wives who were visiting the restaurant where he worked after closing time. He improvised with what little food was available in the kitchen.

Nachos offer a savory and often spicy flavor profile, combining the crunch of tortilla chips with creamy melted cheese, savory meat (optional), and a variety of flavorful toppings.
The base of nachos consists of crispy tortilla chips, typically corn-based. These are topped with melted cheese, usually cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend. Common additions include refried beans, seasoned ground beef, shredded chicken, or carnitas. Toppings like pico de gallo, guacamole, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, and black olives add freshness, spice, and a creamy coolness to balance the richness of the cheese and meat.

Cheese Selection
Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor. Cheddar, Monterey Jack, and Oaxaca are all excellent choices. Pre-shredded cheese often contains cellulose, which prevents it from melting smoothly. Shred your own cheese for best results.
Layering Technique
Layer the chips, cheese, and other toppings to ensure that every chip has a generous amount of each ingredient. Start with a layer of chips, then cheese, then beans, meat, and repeat.
Preventing Soggy Chips
To prevent soggy chips, broil the nachos for a short time to melt the cheese without overcooking the chips. Alternatively, use a low oven temperature (350°F) and bake for a longer period.
Topping Combinations
Experiment with different topping combinations to find your favorite flavor profile. Consider using different types of meat, beans, cheeses, and salsas. Fresh herbs like cilantro and green onions can add a vibrant touch.
