MAIZ MAYA TOTOPO ORIGINAL 400 GR

A totopo is simply a corn tortilla, cut into triangles that are then fried (or grilled, in some cases) until crispy. They are a part of the Mexican aperitif, just like guacamole and hot sauces, and they also accompany certain specialties, such as "frijoles refritos" (black or brown bean paste).

In reality, they serve a dual function: decorative and practical, as they are also used as a spoon!

The great thing about totopos is that they can be consumed with many other specialties, such as hummus, tzatziki, or tarama, for example.

But totopos are also the base for preparing emblematic dishes like chilaquiles or the famous "nachos".

Did you know that nachos were invented by Mexican Ignacio Anaya in 1943, in a restaurant in the state of Coahuila?
