Alice B. Toklas te amo, estilo Oaxaqueno
Yerbabuena used in Oaxacan cooking?
III. Los mezcaleros saborean un caldo de pata de res "con su mezcal". Su secreto: Un caldo de gallina criolla criada en casa servido con yerbabuena, cilantro y chile rebanado, o huevos revueltos en salsa de chile taviche, acompañados de tlayudas y rematados con un trago largo de mezcal. III The mezcaleros savor a broth of leg of beef"with their mezcal". Its secret: A broth of homemade Creole hen served with marijuana, cilantro and sliced chile, or scrambled eggs in sauce of chile taviche, accompanied by tlayudas and finished off with a long drink of mezcal Dang it! I ate a Oaxacan tlayuda once, on the corner Hollywood and Western, but I didn't know to ask for yerbabuena to flavor it... |

By the way, what happened to the beef? What cut of meat is the leg anyway? I don't have any pot big enough to fit a cow leg in. (Pun intended.) |

In an Alice B. Toklas chocolate brownie, weed is crunchy and the abdominal "high" sneaks up on you. > By the way, what happened to the beef? I don't know, the website was about how mezcal is grown and how authentic mezcal can only be made in certain regions under controlled brand names. Then they got off into the business of happy hour in Oaxaca, and what ethnic snacks are consumed with mezcal before taking the siesta. http://www.diasiete.com.mx/nota.cfm?...nfo1&s=1,28,19 En este rincón vallesano, a la vera del fogón, sobre una mesa con bancas rústicas, la clientela acompaña botanas y platillos con aromático mezcal afrutado. La costumbre, ilustra tía Débora, es que los comensales aparezcan pasado el mediodía para abrir con un aperitivo que incluye: chicharrón de cerdo, porciones de quesillo, chapulines y gusanos de maguey o belatobes (zapoteco), tostaditas con guacamole y pasta de frijol, y caldillo de frijol con yerba de conejo o chochoyote, acompañados de sal de gusano de maguey y una copa de mezcal. Gusanos de maguey sound yummy. Babelfish says: In this vallesano corner, to the side of the furnace, on a table with rustic benches, the customer accompanies cocktail snacks and subjects of gossip with aromatic afrutado mezcal. The custom, illustrates aunt Débora, is that the companions at table appear after noon to open with a appetizer that she includes: chicharrón of pig, portions of quesillo, chapulines and worms of maguey or belatobes (zapoteco), tostaditas with guacamole and paste of frijol, and thin sauce of frijol with rabbit grass or chochoyote, accompanied by salt of maguey worm and a glass of mezcal. > What cut of meat is the leg anyway I suppose it's really the thigh of a cow. >I don't have any pot big enough to fit a cow leg in. (Pun intended.) No pot is required for the cooking, just for flavor enhancement. If you're cooking meat in an earthen "pib", just dig a hole and line it with hot rocks, throw in the meat and pour some water in and quickly cover the hole with branches and banana leaves and earth and go drink a bunch of cerveza and mezcal and come back in a few hours to dig up dinner. |
