Beef tacos（ビーフタコス）
Tacos are Mexico’s national dish, consisting of tortillas topped with meat, vegetables, sauce, and other toppings.
In Japan, there is a dish called taco rice, which is an adaptation of the taco introduced by the American military, so tacos are generally understood to be minced meat, lettuce, tomato, and cheese sandwiched between tortillas.
However, this taco is a taco that was popular in America and is different from the one in Mexico.
In Mexico, the word taco is not the name of a dish, but seems to mean a snack. There are endless combinations of ingredients and styles.
Tortilla is an ingredient similar to rice in Japan.
Two common types are corn tortillas and flour tortillas. The difference between burritos, which tend to be mixed together, is that tacos use corn tortillas, while burritos use flour tortillas.
This time it’s a Mexican taco recipe.
This taco has beef and salsa wrapped in a tortilla. I tried making tacos for the first time. I’ve never had it before, so I made it based on what I saw, but it was delicious. I would like to eat real tacos someday ♡
