Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Sopes are small, thick disks of fried corn dough under a topping that usually consists of beans, meat, cheese, and a sauce. Every state in Mexico makes its own version of the dish and calls it differently. In Puebla, it's pellizcada (from pellizcar , meaning to pinch ), in Veracruz a picada , in Yucatán a panucho , and in Oaxaca, a sope is called memela or garnacha . It is characterized by its pinched edges that form a border which holds the toppings. The dish is sometimes referred to as the Mexican pizza , as the simplest form of explanation about what sope really is. These savory snacks are served either as an appetizer, as a main dish, for lunch or for dinner.
