Dinner rolls with orange blossom are a delicious tradition dating back to ancient European recipes, adapted to Latin American cuisine. Their name refers to their shape and the characteristic aroma provided by the orange blossom, an ingredient highly valued in cooking for its fragrance and fresh flavor.
In different Latin American countries, these rolls may be known by similar names or variations, such as "orange blossom buns" in Mexico or "aromatic rolls" in some regions of Central America. However, the essence is the same: a soft, slightly sweet bread, perfumed with orange, ideal to accompany dinner or a special snack.
Their origin is linked to the Spanish influence on Latin American pastries, where breads and buns with citrus flavors were commonly prepared to add freshness and balance to traditional flavors. The inclusion of orange blossom or orange zest in the dough is a technique that has transcended generations, keeping this exquisite tradition alive.
