Tachogobi sounds Japanese. It's Mexican. Specifically, it's from the Yucatán. I don't know that state as well as neighbouring Oaxaca, but I imagine there are similarities in some of the local languages. If true, then the languages they speak in the Yucatán might sound Asian - as do Zapotec and some of the other languages in Oaxaca. That's enough of an ethno-linguistic lesson for now - and especially for a food blog. So what we have here is a decidedly red and white meal. A bit early for Christmas, perhaps the best known red and white event of the year. But red and white all the same. Some cooks would want to see a bit of green - just because they like to see green. They might sprinkle some chiffonade of basil or finely chopped parsley over the top. I prefer my meals unadorned. There's enough tarting up already with the placement of the baby roma tomatoes.
