Sopes

Tortillas in Mexico come in different shapes and sizes that make them some of the most versatile foods in the world. “Sopes” are very thick tortillas made by pinching the edges of the masa-based dough to make it resemble a tart or pie crust. These delicacies are smaller than the usual tortilla, typically about the size of a person’s palm, making them easy to handle as you sink your teeth into them.

Just like many of Mexico’s dishes, toppings are varied, depending on where in the country you are or what people prefer. There is no hard and fast rule on what things you should put on your Sopes but beans, chicken, avocado, cream and salsa are the most common.

You might come across variants of Sopes in the places you visit around the country. “Memelas,” “Picaditas,” and “Pellizcadas” are just some of the different forms of tortillas around, but basically, they are like Sopes too.
