Thursday, January 29th, 2009

The most popular mexican food is… you guessed it.. Tacos!! On our site we have a couple of tasty Taco recipes.. Chicken Tacos and Spicy fish tacos.

Tacos are a traditional and tasty Mexican dish that are more often than not composed of a wheat or maize tortilla, that is rolled or folded around some sort of filling. A Taco is normally served with some kind of garnish such as vegetables and a salsa. Vegetables used are generally onion, cabbage, lettuce, tomato or cilantro.

The base or “bread” that tacos are made out of generally consist of round, thin flour or cornmeal pancakes, that tend to be approximately 6 inches in diameter.

Forever popular for their zesty and spicy toppings, tacos have become somewhat of an emblem for Hispanic-styled cooking.
