How do you make the dried slabs of carne seca?

Typically it's flank steak from what I can tell. But how is it made?

I've purchased it in small grocery stores before from the butcher. Often just salted with maybe a hint of lime.

recommendations for dried chiles in Canada (online)

I was happy to have finally found some through a site called spice merchant.

Specifically the chiles I ordered were mulato, pasilla negro, and chilhuacle (for oaxacan black mole).

They were all extremely brittle and broke into tiny pieces as I tried to remove the seeds and veins to get ready for toasting. It made seperating the seeds an extremely tedious process, and toasting was a disaster because many of the pieces were fingernail sized, and dry so could not get good surface contact etc.

I have managed to find decent ancho and guajillo on amazon, and the local grocers here on very rare occasions will have some that are not brittle and old.

Anyway hoping to find somewhere else that will send good quality ingredients since these things are not exactly inexpensive.

Thanks for any advice!

Fresh cooked Corn tortilla storage

Hi! I am wondering how restaurants store their tortillas before service? I will be hosting a taco night themed party for 20-30 people. I am planning to press and cook the tortillas 2 hours before service. Gracias!

What do Mexican restaurants season their taco meat with?

*americanized Mexican (I know authentic would be different) I keep seeing that they add water when cooking and really finely chop it up but I’m looking for what they use to flavor it. Every restaurant I go to it’s not really tomato/chili power/or cumin based flavor like regular taco seasoning is. I wanna know how to make it at home for meal preps but also white people taco night 😂😂
