WHAT TO EAT IN TULA
Tula is the place to enjoy a “callejoneada”, touring the historic center accompanied by band music and the well-known donkey-bar.
In the gastronomic field, this Magical Town offers its traditional cabrito (young kid roasted or stewed) and the famous enchiladas Tultecas stuffed with potatoes, carrots and chorizo, top with onion, fresh cheese and lettuce.
You can also try the gorditas huastecas that can be stuffed with roast pork, nopales, beef, picadillo, pork rinds, chorizo or beans.
If you like sweets, some good options are the typical ponteduro made with corn and piloncillo honey, as well as its delicious turrones (nougat).

“Enchiladas Tultecas” Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 kg of white corn
- 20 grams of chile cascable
- 1 kg of potatoes
- ¼ onion
- ¼ sausage
- 1 medium cheese
- avocado to taste
- tomato to taste
- piquín pepper to taste
- serrano chile to taste
- 1 lettuce
- salt to taste
Directions:
Grate the cheese. Wash the lettuce, cut finely and add lemon juice.
Put the dry chilies to soak in hot water for 10 minutes until they become tender. Blend the cascabel and pasilla chiles in a blender with the colored water they soaked in.
Add these liquefied chiles to the corn flour (or masa) which you will knead and add the right amount of water to make sure the dough has the appropriate consistency for tortillas and a deep red color.
Form the tortillas with a tortilla press; typically the tortillas are made smaller and thicker than the ones for tacos and should stay soft.
Meanwhile, cook the potatoes and the carrots in boiling water; when they are cooked dice them and put them in a skillet to fry with the chorizo sausages and the carrots; reserve when the chorizo is cooked.
Separately fry the sliced onion with the crumbled cheese mixed in. Fry the tortillas in hot oil one by one, then lay them flat on a plate, at their center we put some chorizo with potatoes and carrots.
Top with the onions with crumbled cheese. Garnish with lettuce, grated cheese and finely chopped tomato.
It can be served with a jerky or a piece of chicken.
