To make a delicious birria, you definitely want to have some key spices on hand! Start with dried chiles like guajillo and ancho; they add depth and a bit of sweetness. Don’t forget cumin and oregano for that warm, earthy flavor! Garlic and black pepper also bring a nice kick. For a little extra zing, you might consider adding cinnamon or allspice, which really elevate the dish. I love experimenting with different spice blends, so it’s fun to find what makes your birria uniquely yours! Have you tried any special combinations? Let’s keep the flavor conversation going!
My favorite spice combinations for birria include chilies, such as dried guajillo peppers, dried ancho peppers, and dried pasilla peppers. I also use spices, like cumin, oregano, and thyme, and herbs (specifically bay leaves).
