About Gordita
The Gordita is a traditional Mexican dish, often made from thick, hand-pressed corn masa dough cooked on a griddle. Its signature feature is a slit in the side, creating a pocket that is filled with a variety of ingredients such as beans, cheese, meats, vegetables, and salsas. Gorditas can vary widely in flavor and texture depending on the fillings and regional preparations. While the corn masa provides fiber and is gluten-free, the nutritional value of a Gordita depends largely on the fillings and cooking methods used. Healthier options include lean protein, fresh vegetables, and minimal added fats, while fried Gorditas or those filled with processed meats and high-fat cheeses may be more calorie-dense. Rich in cultural heritage, Gorditas are a flavorful and versatile dish that showcases the diversity of Mexican cuisine.
