What makes a burrito a burrito?
Burritos are made with flour tortillas and are filled with meat and several other ingredients like rice, beans, cheese, tomatoes and lettuce. The tortillas are usually wrapped and sealed around the ingredients, not folded like tacos. They’re frequently topped with guacamole, salsa, pico de gallo and sour cream.
Burritos are usually handheld also, although “wet burritos” need to be eaten with utensils, and I’m partial to burrito bowls when I dine at fast-casual Mexican eateries.
