Not my best work but I had a lot of things left over. I made chicken flautas with chile verde rolled into taqueria tortillas that were about to expire, a couple of flour tortillas, and left over mozerella cheese.
I made salsa roja for the first time using pickled jalapeños carrot and onion (I normally use fresh jalapeño and onion sautéed in a pan with all the usual suspects when I make salsa)
The salsa did not come out as red as I hoped by I only tossed in 3 Roma tomato. It is spicy and I think if I tweak it I can make some really good enchiladas suizas.
Over all p good the goal was to ensure I eat everything before it expires lol
I've made three batches and finally gotten better at it that I shared some from the last batch. Myself and my testers believe I need a better beef. I've used beef chuck, and even on the last attempt submerging it completely in the crock pot, it's just a bit too dry. I'm using beef instead of pork (and vegetable shortening instead of lard) because some of the people I want to share with don't do pork. I also lowered the crock pot from 8hrs to 6 in an attempt to not overdry, but it only helped a little. any suggestions on better cuts for this?
My daughter went to Mexico a few years back. She had a dish that she described as "green soup in a bread bowl". She said it was amazing but cannot remember the name of it or what it's main flavour was (because it was a few years ago)
Anyone have any idea or could it be one of several dishes ?
Sorry about the poor description
* Update * Thanks to those that suggested various dishes & ideas
It turned out to be 'The Habanero soup in bread bowls' at the Liva Aqua resort in Cancun
So, I’ve been thinking it’d be pretty amazing to find someone special to spoil a little! I mean, who doesn’t love a little pampering, right? I’m all about good vibes, fun adventures, and treating someone to the nice things in life
It has mushrooms on it and I think it’s on a pita bread? Not quite sure the exact tortilla
My girlfriend is vegetarian, and I really want her to try cueritos, but there’s nothing she finds more disgusting than pickled pork skin so I’m trying this for her with coconut, I made both a soft and a firm version. Let see how it goes.
Bon appetit 😋
Tradition ... Tamales made with blue dough 😋
I bought a bag of freeze dried oaxacuena while in Oaxaca, but now I don’t know what to do with it! Any ideas/suggestions?
Exquisite 😋
Yeah I know it is for gas station food and it is owned by Heinz but I really like the flavor. The packets are expensive on Amazon and I’m sure I’m going to be frowned upon taking 4 packs with 1 breakfast burrito.
I was wondering if anyone could help me find a chip/snack I had almost 9-10 years ago when I was younger it was like some kind of chip that was small and the size of a popcorn. came in an orange bag it was like square shape bag and cheesy and a little spicy and kinda dissolved in your mouth like popcorn but a little crunchy I got them from San Luis Potosí if that helps I know the mascot was like the chip itself dressed as a cowboy kind of if I remember correctly
