Who is this Village People guy that goes around wokking everything? (Is he the Indian or the Construction Worker?). Don't he know that the only TRUE Amurican cuisine is Tex Mex?
So, to teach him a thang or two, I'm going to show him tonight's cook - Puffy Tacos. The taco meat is hamburger, garlic, jalapeño, onion, cayenne, cilantro, chili powder, salsa, Mexican oregano, cumin, and a couple of other things. Taco shells are Masa Harina, water and salt.

Does that happen to be a Griswold skillet?
Yzzi. The one that we cooked the shells in is a Griswold, and it's my wife's grandmother's skillet. The other one doesn't have a brand name on the back and I don't remember it's origin. The weights feel the same, so it might be very old also. Two of my other skillets have "Lodge" imprinted on the back, so I'm guessing the others are old too.Dripping Springs, Texas -

Wow, that skillet collection looks even better than the tacos. I was introduced to cast iron when I got an emril one for our wedding (it actually has been a great skillet after many seasonings) . I realized have found several wagners and griswold at antique markets and flea markets that were in awful condition and spent time restoring them. Glad to see them in use once again instead of being trashed. Now I give them away as gifts as I think I have enough. Hopefully my kids will enjoy them as much as I have.Dunedin, FL

Yzzi,Cast iron skillets not only are fantastic cookware that have, usually, been seasoned for many decades to being nonstick, but also are historic artwork that contain many secrets of years gone by. Skillets and dutch ovens accompanied the pioneers in their journey west, and are cherished by many families for the history they hold.I can't think of any other item that binds us to our past as much as these cast iron cookware, because we can still use them just as they did a century and more ago.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

I want one of those tortilla makers....
We were at a wedding in San Miguel de Allende about 5 years ago. I bought it at a market and schlepped it all over town. It works soooooo much better than those cheap metal presses. You can buy one on the internet.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious -
Hey........
We were at a wedding in San Miguel de Allende about 5 years ago. I bought it at a market and schlepped it all over town. It works soooooo much better than those cheap metal presses. You can buy one on the internet.This is an HD thread!VI, if you have a tortilla press, maybe you should post a pic.Bx - > NJ ->TX!!!All to get cheaper brisket! -
Taz,It's in the second picture. As far as HD, my wife was no more impressed with that name than VI, so I thought I'd return to the name my mama gave me when she first looked into my eyes.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

My mother had one (as iron pan) that was given to her from her great aunt, It made the trip to the U.S. from Italy all encrusted on the outside. The last time I saw it, the bottom was so smooth it looked like a piece of obsidian. There was a lot of great food cooked on that thing.Bx - > NJ ->TX!!!All to get cheaper brisket!

Wow. I didn't know the Italians had such a machine. I guess they use it to make flat pastas like cannelloni, lasagna, etc.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

For my new toy, I bought a molcajete yesterday. It's dawned on me that I like old cooking methods the most ... cast iron skillets, molcajetes (hundreds of years old from the Aztecs), woks, and even the Big Green Egg (3,000 year old technology).You can make the best guacamole and salsa, using a molcajete. It will take a very long time to properly season it though.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

LOL, boy did mess that one up!!!!! I meant a cast iron fry pan.Bx - > NJ ->TX!!!All to get cheaper brisket! -
)Now, it all comes clear. I was wondering why a tortilla press would have a smooth bottom, and why you would want to cook on a tortilla press.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious
