    I was watching Ask Aida and she made some stuffed potatos with chorizo and topped with cheese the other day. The Chorizo she used had no color to it.
    I think it was spanish styled. Gowd, that rankles me , because people will look at the red chorizo and go, "EW, AIda didn't use THAT!"


    Also, I had to laugh at AB making corn tortillas.

    Out here you can buy HAND MADE tortillas. In some places you can watch the viejitas(Vee eh hee tahs) little old ladies making the dough and as they stand next to the griddle, they slap each tortilla into shape and cook them as they go....Great theater if you get a chance to see it!

    Chorizo with no color has to look pretty gross. I love it's vibrant color. After all, I love everything about it.

    I would love to have homemade tortillas available here.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    Thanks! I'll definitely try it. This will be the first time I've used lard since I lived in Virginia 25 years ago.

    We have a grocery store here called Freshco. I'm not sure if it's a chain or not. I went in there a few days ago. They have the biggest selection of Hispanic foods and spices I've ever seen. The spice selection alone is unreal. They probably have that brand of flour. I'll take a trip down there and give it a shot.

    Cut the recipe in half and practice! If they don't have La Pina, look for other brands! I think MASECA is another type.

    LUCK!

    Anthony Bourdain visited Mexico City and ate and ate and ate!

    It made me hungry for food off of a taco wagon/truck.

    THAT was MEXICAN FOOD- don't forget to see the woman making hand made blue tortillas!

    I wonder if she is single!

    I'll try to catch it.

    Richard: My latest creation: Tonight I made pancakes. I put cooked chorizo in the pancake batter. Chorizo, pancakes, maple syrup. What can I say? You have to try it. Of course I had more chorizo on the side. Delicious!!!

    That's great, Elyse. I bet you were flabbergasted!! Cool!! I think alot of his shows are filmed at places that people write in about. Did they serve chicken soup on the show?
