17 Como agua para chocolate Like Water for Chocolate por Laura Esquivel

18 El título: como agua para chocolate In some Latin American countries, such as Mexico, hot chocolate is made not with milk, but with water instead. Water is boiled and chunks of milk chocolate are dropped in to melt. The saying "like water for chocolate," alludes to this fact and also to the common use of the expression as a metaphor for describing a state of passion or sexual arousal. In some parts of Latin America, the saying is also equivalent to being 'boiling mad' in anger.
