Totopo in Spanish means Crisp Tortilla.

Totopo is the Spanish name for Tortilla Chips.

Tortilla Chips are Mexican although they were first mass produced in the USA but they were first made in Mexico and served as a Mexican Cuisine.

Although first mass-produced commercially in the U.S. in Los Angeles in the late 1940s, tortilla chips grew out of Mexican cuisine, where similar items were well known, such as totopos and tostadas.

Though usually made of yellow corn, they can also be made of white, blue, or red corn.

Totopos are made of corn.

Totopos are just freshly made corn tortilla chips.

Totopos is Spanish for Tortilla Chips.

Freshly made corn tortilla chips, called totopos in Spanish, are best for preparing chilaquiles or nachos, and also to dip in guacamole, queso con carne, a great salsa or use in any dish that calls for chips.

Homemade tortilla chips are lighter, crispier and have a fresher more authentic corn taste.

Totopos can contribute as one of the main ingredients to make tasty and flavorful nachos, but they are not exactly nachos.

To be more specific, nachos refer to a Mexican dish that is full of heated totopos, or tortilla chips, and some melted cheese or savory toppings such as salsa, lettuce, and sour cream.

A tortilla chip is a snack food made from corn tortillas, which are cut into triangles and then fried or baked (alternatively they may be discs pressed out of corn masa then fried or baked).

Corn tortillas are made of nixtamalized corn, vegetable oil, salt and water.
