Culinary notes:
A rich blend of smoky sundried chillies and paprika with aromatic cumin and oregano, this inspiring Burrito blend brings the taste and aroma of Mexican street stalls to your kitchen. Traditionally made by grilling meat before wrapping in a soft tortilla, the burrito has taken on many incarnations including seafood, vegetables and even comes in bowl form! Dating back to the early 1900s, the burrito was born during the Mexican Revolution as a way for humble street vendors to keep their ingredients warm and fresh by wrapping them in tortillas. Today, the burrito is regarded as one of Mexico’s most well-loved street snacks which have found its way around many dinner tables across the globe. This versatile blend can be used to add a smoky Mexican flavour to just about any dish from tacos and enchiladas to your family-favourites of roast chicken or grilled fish.
