Can we talk about arroz con pollo for a minute?

[JudynTX]

just because

[Taco's Troll]

Mrs Taco can make some mean arroz con pollo

[peewee's lovechild]

The best salsa to make with a molcajete is by crushing/grinding tomatoe and garlic with some chile picin (the little round chiles).

I haven't seen any chile picin since I got to San Antonio. Do they sell that stuff in specialty stores, or what?

[peewee's lovechild]

Picin is pronounced "pee keen" for those that are difficient in their Spanish.

[JoeChalupa]

You need a tortilla press to make corn tortillas right.

How do you roll them?
I would think they would get stuck to your rolling pin.

You are right. I was talking flour tortillas.

[IronMexican]

[peewee's lovechild]

You are right. I was talking flour tortillas.

I do my own flour tortillas.

I hate store bought flour tortillas.

The only exception are the ones sold at Central Market. Those are pretty good.

Never tried the ones from Central Market. Yup, rolling your own is the way to go.

Oh yeah. My mom would get up and cook for me when I'd come home wasted. I think it was because I made so much noise stumbling around the kitchen.

[JudynTX]

[JoeChalupa]

My neighbor has a huge plant growing in his back yard. I've reached over his fence a few times and taken a load of them. I've never seen them sold in stores. Back home they grow wild all over the place.

[Melmart1]

I don't like nopales.

Same here. They are mushy and gross.
