What are burrito and taco?
The burrito and the taco are two very popular Mexican dishes around the world. Both are prepared with corn or wheat tortillas, but they have some differences in their preparation and presentation.
Differences in preparation
The main difference between the burrito and the taco is the way they are prepared. A burrito is made with a large wheat flour tortilla and filled with meat, beans, rice, cheese and any other desired ingredients. It is then rolled up to form a large tube.
Instead, the taco is prepared with a small corn tortilla and filled with meat, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese and sauces. It folds in half to form a kind of pocket.
Differences in presentation
Another difference between the burrito and the taco is its presentation. The burrito is served as a large tube, while the taco is presented in the shape of a pocket. Additionally, the burrito is a larger dish compared to the taco.
Conclusion
