Gringo Kitchen: June 2008

Sunday, June 22, 2008. Ranch-Style Eggs with Tomato-Chile Sauce: Huevos Rancheros. I had to do something with all of that salsa. I'm not really a huge fried egg fan, but this looked like a good weekend breakfast. I apologize in advance for the blurry pictures, but there was a lot to do at once with this dish, even though there were not many ingredients. I didn't have a lot of time for photography. Maybe they can go here. As I said, pretty simple. Just some eggs, queso fresco. And some chopped parsley:.

Friday, May 30, 2008. Saturday Dinner IV: Mole (Mole Rojo con Pollo). I have been putting off both this and the last post both because I have been very busy and because I have been dreading it a bit. The mole took all day, and I mean all day. Charlie woke us up, we got him ready, and I started cooking. I took a short break for lunch (from El Tiempo Market. And St. Arnold. On to the mise! Next are the nuts, seeds, flavorings, and thickeners:. Clockwise from the upper left is: canned tomatoes, tomatillos, ...

Gringo Kitchen: September 2008

Saturday, September 27, 2008. Buttered Crepes with Caramel and Pecans (Crepas con Cajeta). Has entered my life as a result of this project, and that is a very, very good thing. I used to think that boiling a can of condensed milk was all I needed to make a nice dulce de leche. I have changed my mind - cajeta is vastly superior (with all due respect to April Bloomfield, who apparently has access to better "tins" of condensed milk than I do. That I don't know why people even used to eat boring old sugar.

Gringo Kitchen: March 2008

Monday, March 31, 2008. Tacos with Potatoes and Mexican Sausage (Tacos con Papas y Chorizo). Maybe because I did so for the corn tortillas? I already made and froze chorizo based on his recipe, although not identical to it (I didn't have all of the chiles he calls for, so I used my chili powder, which I make based on Alton Brown's recipe. The chorizo's really good, and I'll have to make it again for the blog. Anyway, here's the mise:. Pretty easy, huh? Sure, it is! That doesn't mean it doesn't taste good...

Gringo Kitchen: Crisp-Fried Tortilla Chips (Tostaditas)

Sunday, September 7, 2008. Crisp-Fried Tortilla Chips (Tostaditas). Anyway, we ended up not having time, and I just left them in a bag to dry for several days. That seemed to work, eventually. Anyway, here's the mise:. Not much to it. I sliced the tortillas into sixths to make chips:. Then I set them out in a single layer to dry (or so I thought):. I covered them with a towel so they would not curl up, but not even the magical wicking powers of cotton could help:. Tortillas from El Tiempo Market.

Gringo Kitchen: Wheat-Flour Tortillas (Tortillas de Harina)
http://gringokitchen.blogspot.com/2008/03/wheat-flour-tortillas-tortillas-de.html
Saturday, March 15, 2008. Wheat-Flour Tortillas (Tortillas de Harina). For my first official recipe, I thought I'd start off with something fairly easy. We were also low on flour tortillas for the normal Saturday lunch I make: burritos made with whatever we have in the refrigerator. We had leftover rice and chicken fajita meat from dinner Friday night, and I planned to roll it up and reheat it in tortillas, but I needed tortillas to do that. And what about those italics? Pretty amazing, huh? Next, the re...
