Tacos are a favorite dish for many people, but making the perfect taco takes a little more than just throwing ingredients together.

So here are a few easy tips to help you create delicious tacos every time!

Choose the right tortillas
MasterChef judge and Mexican cuisine expert Aarón Sánchez says there are three important elements to making the perfect taco — the tortilla, the fillings, and the toppings.

You should choose what kind of tortilla to use depending on what kinds of fillings you have, Sánchez told Tasting Table.

If your filling "has fur or is meat," you should use flour tortillas, because they're thicker and won't rip as easily. For all other, lighter fillings, like vegetables or beans, a corn tortilla is best.

Traditional Mexican tacos are almost always made with soft tortillas — not the hard shells that have become popular in America.

Use two tortillas for each taco
If you've ever ordered from a taco truck, you might have noticed that there are two tortilla wraps around your taco. This is to keep the taco together. If one of the tortillas rips or breaks, your fillings won't fall out and make a mess!

Add something pickled
Sánchez adds pickled food to his tacos, to add a bright, tangy taste that balances out the rich meat and cheese.

And it's easy to make your own pickled toppings! Take any leftover vegetables you have, put them in a mix of equal parts water and vinegar, add some sugar, salt and spices, then put it all in a sealed jar. After a day or two, you'll have your own fresh pickled vegetables!

Spread your toppings early
If you like sour cream or guacamole on your tacos, instead of putting them on top of your finished taco, try spreading them on your tortilla before you wrap it. This helps hold the fillings in place, and ensures that you get sour cream or guacamole with every bite!

Tips for Making Perfect Tacos Every Time

こんにちは！Atsushiです。
今日の天気は晴れ。
気温は19℃です。

まだ秋がはじまったばかりですが、天気が良いと気持ちいいですね。

今日は、秋の終わりの気持ち良い日に使う言葉を紹介します。

秋の終わり、天気が良くて、あたたかく、とても気持ちが良い日を「小春日和」という言葉で表現します。

小春、というふうに春という言葉が入っているので、どうしても春に使いたくなりますね。ですが、この言葉は秋に使う言葉です。反対に、春の気持ちがいい日には、小秋日和とは言いません。

もしかしたら日本人でも間違って使っている人もいるかもしれません。ですが、小春日和を使うのは秋の気持ちの良い日のことなので、間違えないようにしてくださいね！

まだ秋が始まったばかりですが、冬に使う言葉で、三寒四温さんかんしおん、という言葉があります。これは1週間の7日の間に、寒い日が3日続いたら今度は暖かい日が4日続く、というような意味で使います。

日本は季節によって天気が良く変わります。
それでこのような天気の言葉が多いのかもしれません。

みなさんの国では、天気を表す言葉はたくさんありますか？
ぜひオンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
