Salt

Cooking the Huaraches:

2. Top with beef (or your preferred protein - chicken, chorizo, or beans work great)
3. Add diced onion and sour cream
4. Finish with lettuce, salsa, and cheese to taste

• Keep the heat at medium to prevent burning
• The huarache base should be tender, not crispy
• Traditional toppings also include queso fresco, cilantro, and avocado
