Bolillo is a traditional Mexican bread roll with a crisp, golden crust and a soft, airy interior. Typically made from wheat flour, water, salt, yeast, and a touch of sugar, bolillos are versatile and often used for tortas, sandwiches, or as a side to savory dishes. Originating from French baguettes introduced during the 19th century, bolillos are smaller and have a distinctive oval shape. While bolillos provide carbohydrates for energy, they are low in essential nutrients like fiber and protein, making them less ideal as a standalone food for balanced nutrition. Depending on preparation, they may also be high in refined grains and sodium. For a healthier option, pairing bolillos with nutrient-dense fillings like vegetables, lean proteins, or avocado enhances their nutritional value while maintaining their delicious role in Mexican cuisine.
