Recaudo vs. Recado

 Can't Post |
 
I have lived in Mexico for a number of years and also have a well-used collection of Mexican cookbooks. Some use the term "recaudo" and some use "redado" for the ubiquitous fried combination of tomatoes, peppers, garlic, and onions. In my dictionary "recado" means message and "recaudo" means a collection (which seems better to me). Which is correct???

recaudo y recado se usan indistintamente para denominar a un conjunto de especies mescladas en forma de pasta, el origen es en la peninsula de yucatan, se dice originalmente ve a traerme un recado (mandado o ir de compras), de ahi el origen de esta palabra que posteriormente se uso como recaudo, la realidad es que es un mexicanismo y eso crea una confucion
