In an interview, chef Enrique Olvera discusses the essence of great tacos, highlighting the importance of heirloom corn tortillas and flavorful salsas. His new cookbook, "Sunny Days, Taco Nights," co-written with Alonso Ruvalcaba, aims to showcase how simplicity in fillings paired with vibrant salsas can create delicious tacos. Olvera also reflects on his coffee obsession and the importance of quality ingredients from his produce supplier, Natoora, which aligns with his culinary philosophy of prioritizing flavor and seasonality in cooking.
You can make a great taco out of anything, all you need is a tortilla made from heirloom corn and a strong salsa game.
Taco fillings tend to be simple, neutral flavors, whereas the salsas are where you add your personality.
No, all you need is good corn, and spices travel.
Natoora has a chef-like obsession with trying to find the best possible ingredients in terms of flavor and seasonality.
