Innovative Culinary Delight: The 'Guachilotorta' in Croissant

'Don Ángel' has introduced a culinary innovation with his creation of the 'Guachilotorta' in croissant. Instead of being served in a bolillo, this Mexican dish consists of a croissant, a symbol of French pastry with Austrian origins. The croissant adds a special texture, as it is made with puff pastry that, when baked, produces a creamy bread with several crunchy layers.

In this special version of the 'Guachilotorta', the croissant is filled with cream, cheese, chilaquiles, onion, and the tamal of choice, whether green, with rajas, or mole. 'Don Ángel' describes his creation as something good and exotic, mixing French and Mexican elements. Additionally, different types of sauce can be found, such as one made with morita chili and peanut.

To find this delicious 'Guachilotorta' in croissant, you must visit 'Don Ángel's' stand in the Benito Juárez neighborhood of Mexico City. Regarding prices, although a video mentioned that the 'Guachilotorta' in bolillo cost 55 pesos, current prices may have varied. The stand's hours of operation are every day from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM.

The 'Guachilotorta' is a variant of the classic 'Guajolota' of Mexico City, which consists of a tamal sandwich accompanied by hot drinks like atole. 'Don Ángel' explains that this dish is made up of tamal, bolillo, and chilaquiles, but may also include other ingredients such as cream, cheese, onion, and protein.

This fusion of Mexican and French cuisine takes the 'Guachilotorta' to another level by presenting it in a croissant. The combination of flavors and textures promises a unique culinary experience for those wishing to try this innovative creation.
