A burrito (US English /bəˈritoʊ/ About this sound buˈrito ) or taco de harina [ˈtako ðe aˈɾina] is a type of Mexican-American food. It consists of a wheat flour tortilla wrapped or folded into a cylindrical shape to completely enclose the filling. (In contrast a taco is generally formed by simply folding a tortilla in half around a filling leaving the semicircular perimeter open.) The flour tortilla is usually lightly grilled or steamed to soften it and make it more pliable.
