Answer 5

I really didn't understand your question but tried to answer best I could because: Tostada is a Spanish word translating to "toasted" in English and, in Mexican cuisine, refers to a flat tortilla that is toasted or deep fried. It also refers to the finished dish using a tostada. Corn tortillas are used more than ones made of wheat flour for this purpose.

A tostada is often served as an appetizer typically topped with a thin layer of refried black bean paste (frijoles refritos), chicken or beef strips or other kinds of animal products. These are usually topped with thinly chopped lettuce strips, sour cream, chopped onion and salsa. As a general rule, due to the flat construction of the tostada, the main topping (i.e. bean paste or meat) must be sticky or pasty enough to stay on the tostada. This helps prevent the other toppings or garnishes from falling off while it's being eaten.

In addition to items typically used as taco fillings, tostadas are popular topped with seafood, such as tuna, shrimp, and ceviche. A tostada vegetariana is only topped with vegetables.

In Tex-Mex cuisine, tostadas are often referred to as tortilla chips and are also served as an appetizer or meal, without toppings, but with sauce or salsa for dipping.

In Cuban Cuisine, tostada refers to Cuban bread, cut lengthwise, buttered, and pressed. Typically tostada is served as a breakfast food and can be dipped in cafe con leche.


A slice of bread becomes a tostada (Spanish sense).
French toast is known in Spain as tostadas, torrijas or torradas.In Spain, it can mean a slice of toasted bread or a French toast, typical of Easter, consisting in milk-soaked bread, battered in egg and fried.

In Colombia, tostada refers to a green, unripe plantain which has been cut into sections, fried, flattened, fried again, and salted. These are also known as tostones in other parts of Latin America.

Tostadas are fried tortillas, might taste better, definately not better for you!!

Answer 7

I actually made pizzas on soft tortillas last week. It was pretty good, but I prefer a thin pizza crust. I like to load on the toppings and a crust just provides a better base for that.

They both are Just the thing for your health. If you eat both, you're better off. But yea, I've choose fruits because they taste better.

Answer 9

It will depend on the fruit or plant involved with a comparison. If perhaps you compare a farreneheit to a carrot, the carrot is the better of the two nutritional. But since you compare an avocado to the carrot, then this avocado is better. Equally the apple and avocado, are fruits.

Answer 10

depends on how you plan on eating it
