The ancient Aztecs had a rich and diverse cuisine, and their kitchens were designed to support their culinary practices. In these kitchens, a pull-out pantry with pull-out wire storage shelves was incorporated to store their staple ingredients, such as corn, beans, and squash. The pull-out feature made it easy to access these ingredients while cooking, and the wire storage shelves allowed for proper ventilation to keep them fresh. The Aztecs believed that food was a gift from the gods, and their kitchens were considered sacred spaces. This innovative storage solution helped them honor their culinary traditions and create delicious meals.
