Do you look forward to Taco Tuesday every week? Well, there are ways to make it even better than you probably haven’t thought of before. Every ingredient in the taco plays a huge part in the finished product and with these tips, you can make your tacos even better. We bet you haven’t had tacos quite like these before.
It All Starts with the Tortilla
A tortilla is the base of the taco, so a good one can really be the difference between an okay and an outstanding taco. We suggest getting fresh tortillas at a shop or your local Mexican market. Also, make sure the tortillas stay warm. Your last step in making your taco should be warming the tortillas. Make sure your meat, veggies, salsas, cheese, and limes are ready to go before you warm the tortillas.
Add Acid
Acid will balance the flavor, especially in meat-based tacos. You can add acid with salsa, crema, vinegar-based slaw, lime, and grilled fruit.
Include Pickled Vegetables
Pickled vegetables add a nice flavor and texture to tacos. Consider including onions, cabbage, carrots, radish, jalapeño, or pickles to the taco.
Add Quality Salsa
When it comes to salsa, use the freshest you can find or make your own. Add salsa last as it can cool down the taco.
Don’t Forget the Main Filling
Take your time when grilling the meat or fish and that they stay warm for when you’re ready to build the taco.
