Now lots of things tasted better to me as a kid than they do now, including cotton candy and Spam, but canned hash is just awful now.Dorsaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17253950621398998384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-90312278824413000372015-09-14T23:37:28.342-04:002015-09-14T23:37:28.342-04:00Unfortunately, I did the math and much to dismay d...Unfortunately, I did the math and much to dismay discovered that Monday is in fact the cruelest month and three-quarters.<br />JChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02448124833598565813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-85936596145367163642015-09-14T21:35:37.897-04:002015-09-14T21:35:37.897-04:00I have found the secret to finding good chorizo is...I have found the secret to finding good chorizo is to find the proper little family run hole-in-the-wall market in a place beginning with "San" (-Antonio, -Angelo) and ending in "TX".

Not that I know what cat food tastes like, but I know what it looks like. <br /><br /> I think you are right. Just toss a diced potato and more chorizo in next time. At least you know it won't taste like a can.<br /><br /> pigpen51https://www.blogger.com/profile/07447842175184001919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-91329377959323991832015-09-14T14:38:05.778-04:002015-09-14T14:38:05.778-04:00Ah, Chorizo!

However, when I make my quicky breakfast burritos I only use chorizo, eggs, Mexican cheese and fresh flour tortillas.<br /><br />The secret to good chorizo is to cook it first, adding enough water to the pan to allow it to be a slurry, then frying/steaming(?) until the water is gone. This insures no burning of the meat and the steam cooks it through and through.<br /><br />Follow up with eggs, stirring briskly to avoid sticking and when done prepare burrito as you prefer. A splash of picante and dollop of sour cream is a tasty finishing touch...Countglockulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04439720948349353264noreply@blogger.com
