Bolillo is a type of bread commonly found in Mexican cuisine. It is a crusty white bread, similar in texture to a French baguette, but shorter and thicker. Bolillos are often used to make sandwiches, known as tortas, and are a staple in many Mexican households. The bread is made from simple ingredients, including flour, water, yeast, and salt. It is typically baked until golden brown, resulting in a crispy exterior and a soft, airy interior. Bolillos can be enjoyed fresh or used to accompany various dishes, such as sopas or guisos.
