Tacos are the national dish of Mexico, and consist of a hand-sized corn or wheat tortilla stuffed with a filling. The tortilla is folded around the filling and eaten by hand. Tacos can be filled with ingredients such as beef, pork, chicken, seafood, tofu, beans, vegetables, and cheese. The tortillas can be garnished with different condiments, such as salsa, guacamole, sour cream and vegetables, including lettuce, onion, tomatoes, and chillies.
Seasoning is the key to creating a delicious taco. Whether you like things mild or hot, a good taco seasoning can transform a humble filling into a tempting Mexican meal. Make tacos, burritos, chilli and other Tex-Mex favourites with these homemade taco seasoning recipes.
