Mexican in the Kitchen

Grew up in Mexico and this shows in most of the things I cook. I live in Europe now and try to cook with the ingredients I can find, sometimes I find everything, sometimes I have to improvise.

    In Mexico we say dirtier, tastier (guy peeing), Always carry some oil and a bottle of water plus soap and if the discs in Mexico are authentic plow discs, worked by blacksmiths, COOKING WITH FIREWOOD ADD A EXTRA FLAVOR This is how dialada is made in Mexico., Greetings and Benefit

    I’ll be the first to say you did a great job. I’d do all the same steps except fry the dried chipotle, garlic, chile Arbol, and sesame in oil and all to those tomtoes and onion. It’s like a salsa macha on crack. Similar to spains romesco sauce if you think about it except 20x better with all the spice.

Unfortunately it literally takes two seconds to type gyoza in google to find it’s origins, including how it arrived in japan. You could also speak to an anthropologist if you insist though, who will tell you the same thing. Here’s an extract from wikipedia: “Gyoza are a Japanese version of jiaozi that were developed from recipes brought back by Japanese soldiers returning from the Japanese-backed puppet state of Manchukuo in northeastern China during World War II. The Japanese word gyōza derives from giǎoze, the Jilu Mandarin pronunciation of the standard Mandarin jiǎozi, and is often written using the same Chinese characters.”

    al buscar herramientas pa hacer mole encontré la metate. se puede usar molcajete en lugar de la metate para hacer mole? la mujer que la usa dice que no hay otro método de hacerlo y que el usar herramientas modernas no tiene el savor como dices aquí en este vídeo pero que crees? es necesario o es más cuestión de la gente que no quieren que su cultura muera?

  • @MexicanintheKitchen
    @MexicanintheKitchen3 ай бұрын

    Se puede usar el molajete. El metate tal vez es más fácil pues tienes mayor superficie y se puede hacer más presión. El sabor es verdad y creo que si tienes el tiempo y dedicación para hacerlo a mano, es una bonita experiencia. La textura que se obtiene del metate y molcajete es también diferente, pero si quieres ahorrarte tiempo y usar una licuadora, tu mole quedará bien también. Creo que es importante mntener las tradiciones, pero eso no quiere decir que no podamos tomar atajos. Personalmente, los fines de semana o en ocasiones especiales cocino desde cero lo más posible, pero entre semana tomo muchos atajos y uso cosas ya preparadas. Creo que es importante conocer las recetas y tecnicas a fondo y ser concientes de los atajos que tomamos pues nos ayudan a hacerlo sin alejarnos demasiado del resultado final

Personally I love the time consuming labor of love projects putting some good karma into it. I have 145 heads of garlic growing, lots of sweet and hot pepper varieties and wonderful San Marzano tomatoes in the garden this year. I'm going to give this thing some real lovin' and can't wait to finally have one. It's been on my wish list for quite some time now.
