A Simple Guide to Making Perfect Soft Tacos

  • Written by NewsServices.com

Simplicity is the best ingredient in the kitchen. Soft tacos are no different. The perfect soft taco should be easy to make and require few ingredients. This guide will show you how to make the perfect soft tacos, from using a press tortilla to make your own taco filling.

First, you will need a tortilla press. You'll use the press to make the soft taco shell. Soft taco shells are called "tortillas" in Spanish. The press will help you make them perfectly round and thin.

Making tortillas is super easy

You don't need to be a culinary expert to make perfect tortillas. Just follow the instructions that came with your tortilla press. You'll need flour, water, and a little lard. That's it!

Using the press, make sure the dough is flattened evenly. Otherwise, your tortillas will be of different sizes and thicknesses. Now you're ready to cook the tortillas.

You can either fry them or bake them. If you fry them, use vegetable oil and ensure the oil is hot before adding the tortilla. Fry for 10-15 seconds on each side or until golden brown.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit if you decide to bake them. Place the tortillas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper—Bake for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Now it's time to fill your tortillas!

There are many different ways to fill a soft taco. The most popular fillings are ground beef, chicken, or fish. But you can use any protein you like.

If you're using ground beef, cook it until it's browned and crumbly. Then add your favorite taco seasoning. Chicken can be either shredded or diced. If you're using fish, make sure it's cooked all the way through.

Other popular fillings include beans, rice, cheese, and vegetables. Get creative and mix and match until you find the perfect combination for you.

Try to think outside the box

Maybe someone in your family doesn't like to eat meat, or you're trying to eat more vegetables. There are still plenty of options for you!

You could use tofu as a protein or make a black bean and corn filling. You could even make a sweet potato and kale filling. Your creativity is the only thing limiting you.

Once you've decided on your filling, it's time to assemble your tacos. Start by adding a scoop of filling to the centre of each tortilla.

Then, add your favourite toppings. Some popular toppings include sour cream, salsa, avocado, and cilantro. But again, get creative and add whatever you like.

Don't forget the hot sauce!

Now, it's time to eat. But before you take your first bite, don't forget the hot sauce. Hot sauce takes these tacos to the next level.

The best hot sauces are made with chiles, vinegar, and salt. They're spicy, tangy, and oh-so-delicious. Just a few drops will transform your tacos.

So, there you have it—a simple guide to making the perfect soft tacos. Just remember to keep it simple and have fun with it. There are no wrong answers when it comes to tacos. Mix and match your favourite toppings and fillings to create a taco that is uniquely yours.
