A kosher tortilla? Come on now.


Yes, regular tortillas are made with corn.
Kosher flour ones were invented by Jews in Mexico. That's what is used for a burrito. Surprised you don't know that.


Uh, no. Corn tortillas are common in Soutehrn Mexico. Flour tortillas are common in northern Mexico especially the Sonoran area and date back to the 16th and 17th century Spanish missionaries like Father Kino. In modern times, its not typical for tortillas to be made with lard, but they are sometimes fried in lard and it is very common for the beans to be made with, or fried in, lard or other animal fats.

You should order from San Pancho burritos in Takoma Park-- they are outstandingly good (and not that expensive either)!

How can anyone answer this when we don't know where he's getting the burrito from. We dont know their ingredient options. A burrito for lunch? You're going to end up in the sh!tter anyhow. Good luck.

Chipotle's barbacoa is the way to go. Add black beans, white or brown rice, corn salsa, tomato salsa, and lettuce. Add guac if you don't mind the extra cost and calories.

Great, do you have the recipe? Oh wait.

If only there were some way to access recipes from many diverse sources from the comfort of your own home…

Whole Foods on Wilson Blvd used to have great black bean burritos in the deli case. I used to get them. Even cold they were tasty.

I’ve done it and they are tasty but I can never get them large and thin and stretchy enough for burritos. I think they must use a special grade of flour or something to adjust the gluten to get them so thin and stretchy — maybe pizza 00 flour would work?
Growing up we used to make the small tortillas in school for an end of semester treat but we used a tortilla press — I think that’s way easier than rolling them. I think you could also use a cast iron pan because the tortilla press was basically like two heavy cast iron plates that you smooshed together with a lever.
Not owning my own tortilla press is one of the many ways that my adult life deviates from the life I had anticipated for myself.
