THE ORIGINAL NACHOS
The first nachos were said to have been invented in Piedras Negras, Mexico, in 1940, with just three ingredients. As the story goes, a group of women walked into the Victory Club in Piedras outside business hours. Aiming to please, Ignacio Anaya, the maître d'hôtel known as Nacho, ran to the kitchen and made a quick appetizer with ingredients he found. Today's nachos know no end to their variations: They can have a number of seasoned layers, like these bricklayer-style nachos, or these vegetarian bean nachos, or simply be topped with cheese sauce, like those sold at concession stands. But the simplicity of its original, with its barely salted chips, nutty melted cheese and briny pickled jalapeños, is sure to charm true fans.

Steps:
- Set racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and heat to 400 degrees.
- Spread the tortilla chips in a single layer on two large sheet pans. Place a scant tablespoon of shredded cheese over each chip, pressing slightly to adhere. Top each chip with 1 or 2 slices pickled jalapeño. Sprinkle or spoon the pickled jalapeño brine all over the chips. Bake until cheese melts completely and begins to lightly brown at the edges, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Serve nachos immediately, directly on the hot baking sheets, or use a spatula to transfer them to a platter.

Tips:
- Choose the right chips. The best nachos start with sturdy chips that can hold up to all the toppings. Look for chips that are thick and crispy, such as tortilla chips or potato chips. Wavy chips are also a great option, as they provide more surface area for the toppings to cling to.
- Don't skimp on the cheese. Nachos are all about the cheese, so be generous with your portions. Use a good-quality cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or queso Oaxaca. You can also use a combination of cheeses for a more complex flavor.
- Layer your toppings. The key to great nachos is layering the toppings so that each bite is a flavor explosion. Start with a layer of chips, then add a layer of cheese, followed by a layer of your favorite toppings. Repeat this process until you have a nachos that is as tall as you want it to be.
- Get creative with your toppings. There are endless possibilities when it comes to nacho toppings. Some popular options include beans, ground beef, chicken, vegetables, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, and jalapeños. But don't be afraid to experiment and try new things. The sky's the limit!
- Serve your nachos immediately. Nachos are best served immediately after they are made, while the chips are still crispy and the cheese is melted and gooey. If you need to make them ahead of time, you can assemble them and then bake them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Nachos are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, game days, or a quick and easy meal. With so many different ways to make them, there's sure to be a nacho recipe that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give nachos a try! You won't be disappointed.
