Traditional Yucatan cuisine has its origins in the Hispanic and Yucatán Mayan culture.

The combination of meat from animals brought from Europe, the spices, and cooking methods and preparation of multiple local ingredients, resulted in many dishes such as the lime soup.

[1] The lime soup as it is known was first created in 1946 by the master called Katún (means "warrior" in the Mayan language).

Its unique flavor is recognized throughout Mexico and the world by the predominance of strong seasonal ingredients.

The soup is accompanied with chicken, tomato, bell pepper, cilantro, tortilla chips and other ingredients.
