Fun Fish Tacos 🌮🇲🇽

By CookUp • Issue #21 • View online

Welcome to Taco Tuesday on Friday. This week we’ll dive into tacos de pescado. This type of taco originated in Baja California in Mexico. The port town of Ensenada is cited as the fish taco’s true home, dating at least from the opening of the mercado, in 1958.

They traditionally consist of grilled or fried fish, lettuce or cabbage, pico de gallo, and a tangy mayonnaise sauce, all placed on top of a corn or flour tortilla. Let’s get to it and cook up some delicious fish tacos of your own.
