That's it, it's out. Mexican food and me know each other a bit. I don't know all of it but I know a enough to cook it myself and make it more authentic than Taco Bell (or Taco Bill). I read many books and recipes from Rick Bayless and Diana Kennedy. I went to a few Mexican restaurants and some where aweful (meal went from freezer to microwave in 4 minutes) and some were awesome (food actually cooked fresh).
If I have to pick a cuisine, Mexican is my pick! Some of you might remember the famous Cochinita Pibil thread. More recently, I posted another one where you get a roast and a soup in 1 pot call Pork Barbacoa (but it's better with Chicken if you ask me). I am currently marinating pork that I will cook in the crock pot today in a hanabero sauce. I will then shred it with a fork and eat it in tortillas.
I got a tortilla press and made my own for at least 5 years now. It was difficult at first but now it's easier. I use the regular masa to make them with water and that's all. We eat Mexican food at least 3 times a week in Casa Luc and it would 7 days a week if it were only me but a bit of change is good.
So, I might be missing something out there. I know more than 2 Mexican recipes but what's yours? What do you make and what do like? A recipe is always welcome!
