Pork and Nopales: The Perfect Tacos de Guisado
If you've never used nopales before, this is a great entry-level dish! If the nopales you buy aren’t cleaned (at some Mexican groceries, you’ll find them cleaned and cut into small pieces), clean them one by one: Holding a paddle with a pair of tongs, trim off the edge that outlines the paddle, including the blunt end where the paddle was severed from the plant, then slice or scrape off all the spiny nodes from both sides. Cut the paddles into ½-inch squares or into ¼-inch strips (if any are longer than about 2 ½ inches, cut them in half).

Pro tip for cooking nopales: if you're boiling them, add a couple of tomatillo husks in the water and cook for 10-15 minutes depending on size. Once drained and rinsed there'll be none slime left. Alternatively you can also use a little baking soda (which will also preserve the color better), but it will bubble up a lot and may cause spilling, plus the cooking is sometimes weird with it, uneven. Also, if you are daring to taste nopales in a totally different way, just cut them into either strips or squares and add a lot of sea salt on them, let cure for 15 minutes approximately, rinse the salt and you got raw nopales ready to eat with almost no slime left. If you don't like nopales, then this versiom could probably change your mind

Depending on where you live, it can really take over! My in-laws fenced theirs off, but wound up getting rid of it because of the grandkids running around.
This meal is truly godly. My mom makes it soooo good. I could probably eat a whole pan of it tbh
You are a good teacher Rick
I’ve got nopales ready to be picked, thanks so much!
My stomach literally started growling as soon as Rick nentioned what he was cooking. 😒Thanks Rick.
You guys really love lamps 😂 Ive never seen so many in one room. I counted 16 in one video.
Must say, great job cutting a short from this, as a draw for the longer video. Was the perfect balance of feelings of like a complete scene, while sparking interest for the longer form.
Wow! You’re amazing Rick.
One of the best dishes ever!! Can't wait to give this recipe a try.
Awesome 😎 tasty food to eat, and to share with family,and friends, thank you Rick.
Without a doubt the best way to eat nopales. Or just simply in chile rojo
Your mexican accent is perfecto.
Señor… es usted el mejor 😋😋😋
I love nopales so much
"OK I lied! I'm still browning the meat." Felt. I always eat my words lol
Thank You
thanks for sharing
Yummy I want some of this.
Delicious ❤
I'm surprised! el cuchillo no parece afilado? Pero, guisado es sexy todos modos. Mexico guisados are my favorite and I feel we haven't shown them enough. and many folks don't know yet of how gorgeous this cooking technique can be. In US, we know pot roast and stew across the country. It's only natural to encourage guisados en teaching and demonstration.
Great great job. What do you think about frying the corn tortillas. To make them slightly hard.
I don't know but for some reason I never liked to consume pork. Rick is such a Great chef it almost temps me. Ohh no should I. I'm not Jewish but maybe I've got some great old ancestry in me, could it be.
Sup skip Bayless brother haha
Why oil-roast the dried chillies here rather than dry roast them like in your other recipe videos?

Great question! Sometimes we want the finished chiles to be used in a salsa or dish without any fat, so dry toasting works best. Here, the finished sauce will have pork fat so we can simplify the steps by using the same pan and toasting in oil. Allison, Rick's Test Kitchen Director

@@RBtestkitchen That makes sense, thanks for the response
What chili do I use if I want medium spice?
When you cleaned the nopales, I could see a teeny number of "nodes" in the pile with the cut-up cactus, and a few scattered on the board there as well. Do you then rinse the cut pieces to ensure that there are no nodes at all, or are a few nodes not a problem? I'm a little worried by the word "disastrous" in reference to touching (and presumably eating) the nodes....

Take care to remove and separate all the nodes! We don't suggest rinsing, but you could take a paper towel to gently scrape each side of the paddle to make sure you got them all. Allison, Rick's Test Kitchen Director
Never have I seen chef so enthusiastic and excited about cooking so many nasty meals....
More OYE UL.
