Chef's Notes

Tacos are one of the oldest and most beloved foods in Mexico. The word “taco” dates back to the 18th century and originally referred to small pieces of paper wrapped around gunpowder used by Mexican silver miners. The name later became associated with food wrapped in tortillas, because the shape was similar.
