ALSO, you can drink their blood to survive if you're stranded at sea :black101:

There's a dish in my hometown called "tortuga en sangre" (turtle in blood), I swear I haven't been able to find the recipe or even a photo*...all I could find is a description that said something like "...The turtle is cooked in its blood with green bananas..."

*The reason might be because it's already forbidden to hunt and cook turtles, people over here nearly brought them to extinction.

My girlfriend was looking for cheap and easy food to make a while back and stumbled upon a recipe for some pretty generic chicken and rice dish. Basically you cook rice in chicken broth and add diced tomatoes, chicken breast, green onions, avacado, cheese and sour cream. It's definitely delicious and we've had it two or three times since, but goddamn does it look like grey slop in a bowl with green specks. We refer to it only as "carb sludge".

There is no way I am sullying my phone with a picture.

Wait, you cook the rice with the avocados? :psyduck: YOU SINNERS.

Hahaha no, oh my god, I can only imagine horrible brown slime now. The rice is cooked with the broth, that's it. Everything else is added after.

Alright, that's better.

You should add some color to that rice. Make it Mexican style. You just have to mix the chicken broth with tomate sauce (not ketchup). Or add the chicken broth and some fresh tomatoes in a blender, make a sauce, cook the rice with that sauce.

Should probably be called a sandwich taco, making sandwich the descriptor, since it is a taco with sandwich fillings. You see tacos dont typically contain coldcuts and mayo while sandwiches often do.

if you put ham and cheese in a soft tortilla you are automatically making a quesadilla.

You can put mayo on tacos, it's a thing over here:


You can actually put anything you want on a taco. As long as it's yummy.

(But gringo tacos with hard tostada-like tortillas are sort of insulting a whole country, anyway)

Gets boring saying it over and over.
You can get shelf stable 3 month old corn tortillas if you want, but no one is making them fresh. Corn and mexican food is not big here at all (unless buying the tex mex brand "old el paso" or "mission" junk. Most of the time I buy fresh pita bread as a tortilla substitute if not making it myself.

:smith: I feel sorry for your country.

My cousins used to live in the Netherlands when they were teens, and I remember they would pack their bags with Mexican bread,candies,chips and whatever food they could take whenever they came to visit, because they told me poo poo over there was sort of bland.

Fresh smoked oysters are the best thing in this world. Sadly over here you might get a killing diarrhea, so it's one of those foods you have to be extra careful with.

You can literally die from it. Once in a while the oceans gets extra contaminated (sewage) and the goverment forbids consuming certain sea food. Or we get an oil spill, like it happened recently. Third world problems! :v:

Empanadas are pretty huge in anywhere with a major Latino population. That and chicken pot pie are about as mainstream as savory pies get in America, unless you live in the specific parts of the midwest where Pasties are common.

Empanadas are delicious and greasy. Meat,fish,shrimp,pork,beef or just oaxaca cheese. Where I live they sell something called "Pastelitos de carne" (Little meat cakes), which is simply a different kind of empanada, filled just with grounded beef, that you eat with Valentina sauce.

I want empanadas now.

I don't understand why I find this thread to be the funniest on the entire forums. This is the second time something in this thread has made me laugh helplessly, this and the Sad Pea Soup. I don't understand. Ohhhh god.



I mean...I guess it's probably fine? Or something? I have no idea why you would use chocolate frosting in mole. Mole isn't supposed to be sweet, right? Why?

This is...so wrong.


Mole already has chocolate, but not like this, not frosting. That's so wrong. For gently caress's sake, they already sell mole sauce ready to serve for the lazy ones. :mexico:
(Mole can be sort of sweet, if you don't want it too spicy, but will never taste like just chocolate)

Edit: By the way, the chocolate used for making mole paste is already cheaper than frosting (In my country, unless things are different in the USA).

Why would they leave the legs on to begin with? I can't imagine there's much nutrition in them compared to the main body.

If you buy the expensive ones, flavored and in a fancy jar they do come without legs or wings. The traditional ones that you buy in a regular run of the mill Mexican market come with legs and everything. FYI, the ones in a jar taste terrible, as the crickets are too dry and old.

Here's a video of how it is done:
