Tortilla Warmth
Always warm your tortillas before filling them. This makes them more pliable and enhances their flavor. A quick toast on a comal or a few seconds in a microwave will do the trick.
Ingredient Freshness
Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Freshly chopped cilantro, onions, and ripe avocados can make a significant difference.
Layering Flavors
Think about layering flavors when building your tacos. Start with the meat, then add a creamy element, followed by fresh toppings and a squeeze of lime for acidity.
Meat Preparation
Use a slow cooking method for maximum flavor. Try marinades or long, slow braises.
