Talo is a flat Basque cornmeal bread, traditionally cooked on a hot stone or griddle, then folded around fresh chorizo (txistorra) or cheese. It is the canonical Santo Tomas market street food.
Talo is older than wheat bread in the Basque country, made from maize flour brought from the Americas after 1492. Rural Basque cooks made talo on hot stones, before the wood-fired oven became standard. Today, talo de txistorra is the canonical street food of the Santo Tomas market on 21 December in Bilbao's Plaza Nueva, where rural baserri stalls grill the txistorra (fresh chorizo) and fold it into the warm talo with a glass of txakoli or cider.
