It may be taco Tuesday but no one said you can’t serve tostadas like grilled catfish corn and black bean tostadas. Technically speaking a tostada is a flat taco.
Tacos are either soft or hard, rolled or simply folded. The tostada is a taco except it is served open faced. Much like an open faced sandwich or burger; the taco can be opened faced too except in Mexican cuisine it has an actual name.
Instead of being dorky and saying open faced taco, Mexican’s came up with the term tostada. Steve from The Black Peppercorn came up with an open faced taco (ahem tostada), which you will love.
For those of you who do not like catfish, it can be replaced with tilapia, rockfish, or mahi mahi. Get the full recipe from The Black Peppercorn by clicking the link below.
