About Huarache

Huarache is a traditional Mexican dish named for its sandal-like shape. Made from masa (corn dough), it is pressed into an oblong form and cooked on a griddle, creating a sturdy base for a variety of toppings. Common toppings include refried beans, salsa, meat (such as beef, chicken, or pork), fresh lettuce, cream, cheese, and avocado. Rich in dietary fiber from the masa and beans, huaraches offer plant-based protein and essential vitamins. However, their nutritional value can vary significantly depending on the toppings. Lean proteins and fresh vegetables enhance its healthiness, while high-fat additions like cheese or heavy creams increase calorie and saturated fat content. Traditionally prepared with fresh, wholesome ingredients, huaraches are a delicious way to enjoy Mexican street food, but moderation is key if you’re watching your intake of fats and sodium.
