A bolillo is a type of bread roll commonly found in Mexican cuisine. It is characterized by its crusty exterior and soft, airy interior. Bolillos are often used to make sandwiches, such as the popular torta, or served alongside meals. They are typically made from wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt. The shape of a bolillo is elongated and oval, resembling a small baguette. This bread is a staple in many Mexican households and is enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Bolillos can also be used to make mole or served with salsa for dipping.
