Carnitas

Cultural Context

Carnitas, meaning 'little meats' in Spanish, is a traditional Mexican dish that originated in the state of Michoacán. It is typically made by braising pork in its own fat until tender and then crisping it up. Carnitas are often served in tacos or burritos and are a staple in Mexican cuisine, celebrated for their rich flavor and versatility.
