Burrito

A burrito is a dish of a flour tortilla wrapped around a filling, sealed into a cylindrical shape distinct from an open taco. The name means little donkey in Spanish, a diminutive of burro. The form developed in northern Mexico, particularly around Ciudad Juarez, though its exact origin is unclear; it became established as a Mexican regional name for what other areas called a taco. Burritos entered American restaurant menus in the 1930s, with El Cholo Spanish Cafe in Los Angeles credited as an early adopter. Fillings commonly include beef, chicken or pork, rice and beans, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and condiments such as salsa, guacamole and sour cream. The tortilla is often lightly grilled or steamed before filling so it becomes pliable enough to wrap tightly and seal, allowing the burrito to be eaten by hand.
