We don't need no steenking cook books. We don't do recipes. We eat what is in the refrigerator. We fold tacos. We eat beans. We fart. We drink beer. We **** a lot. We drink habanero sauce right out of the bottle. We puke. We have diarhhea in the boat. We have a hangover. Then we do it all over again. |

I didn't think you would have any recipes. An article in this morning's Houston Chronicle (Associated Press) says that there is a pepper grown in Changpool, India (called a bhut jolokia, or "Ghost Chili") that is going to be imported to the U.S. and seems to be the hottest pepper in the world. It has over 1,000,000 Scoville Units. The pepper is so hot that visitors to the town in India where it has been grown for a long time are warned by locals not to try them under any circumstances. The locals eat them, though. A jalapeno rates from 2,500 to 8,000. A Red Savina Habanero rates 580,000. I can't remember where a Scotch Bonnet is on the scale. If you are looking to make some made-from-scratch recipes that don't use a prepared chile sauce, you might try this one in your molcajete. About half of my meals are eaten in Mexico, however, and I find that Mexicans aren't anywhere nearly as fond of extremely hot food as Texans are. Most Mexicans use prepared/bottled hot sauces. Jack |

Somebody once posted a list of the relative heats of various chiles here, but he was bitterly criticized for posting recipes. All the taco benders and calmex fans and experts who can tell good beer from warm **** when they are drunk raised such a stink he quit posting recipes. http://groups.google.com/group/alt.f...c41b827bc3c7d0 Too bad this group has become stuck in the mud of the lowest common taco bender... |

This has also been my experience, as well. With my Hispanic friends, they are not looking to the heat but more from the taste and/or texture offered by the peppers itself. The majority are quite happy to nosh pickled jalapenos for heat. Habs are the "hottest" I've ever seen one go and he liked suffering through his meals considering each dining experience a contest of wills, a test of just how brave he was. Conversely, my TX friends and family are always looking to see just how far they can push that damned heat envelope. I'd bet at the next Clan Gathering several will have access to those Ghost Chilis (which will have found their way into the communal bowl o' red.) The Ranger |

Since I can't recall one single posting of your own original thought I criticized you just as many other's did, so get over it. I bend tacos because I like them and take offense to your elitist bullshit when discussing food from Mexico. |

Looks like a hab in a way. In regards to bottled sauces from the previous poster. Some people would lead you to believe that it is a sin to use a processed product from a bottle. I disagree. I think buying, collecting and using different sauces from around the world opens your palate to spicy fare and only increases your own imagination in the kitchen. Without imagination our food would be pretty dam dull. |

Where's *your* contribution to this NG, besides opening a salsa > bottle and pouring it onto some tortillas and cheese? ~~~~ I put this in back about 6 years ago, sport.. this is my own concoction. Salsa Verde M5 6-10 tomatillos (depending on size); about 12 oz worth 2-4 serranos & 1-2 jalapenos, or all serranos (to taste) 1/3 cup finely chopped onion 1 clove garlic, finely chopped 1/4 tsp ground cumin 1 tbsp fresh cilantro leaves (cut up or not) 1 tbsp vinegar (optional) 1 tbsp peanut oil pinch salt Peel and rinse the tomatillos, being careful for little worms and things. Heat the comal and roll the tomatillos on the surface until there are significant browned patches on all of them. Similarly treat the peppers. Purree the tomatillos and peppers (or if you must, mash them on a molcajete) and force through a seive to remove bits of skin and seeds. (Tomatillo seeds will wind up jumping everywhere.) Heat the oil in a small skillet and sautee the onion until transparent (about 5 minutes at pretty high heat). Add the garlic and stir quickly; allow neither the garlic nor the onion to brown. Add the cumin and the purree and stir quickly. Reduce heat slightly and allow to reduce until somewhat less watery. Taste and season, adding the vinegar if the tomatillos didn't add enough bite (be careful with the vinegar). Remove from heat and stir in cilantro leaves. This sauce is a nice accompaniment to grilled pork or chicken. It can be combined in trendy ways with a rich red/brown sauce made from dried peppers. |

Booger, there is a big difference in learning something new and ignoring the vile racist, and often egotistical, rants from a desperate old man. Your M.O. remains the same. No one cares about your great, great, great uncle on your mother's side, twice removed. You can't cook, know nothing about foods, incessantly bitch about tacos and tamales, obsess on organ meat and you disparage the people. So once again I have to ask; why do you come here? |

I'm guessing that the cumin is something appealing to north of the border taste buds. Even to this day, cumin is slow to catch on in south of the border Mexican cooking. |

Just for your info I only review RFC and AFMC, but I do google. It is interesting that you not only pose a question you attempt a sage answer under another name. Sad, it is. But how about answering the question for once? Why do you come here if you can't cook, obsess about tortillas, tacos, and tamales, don't like Mexcians and have this great need to tell us about your make-believe ancestors and your warped sense of history? Do you have such an overwhelming obsessive need to school us to your delusional thinking? Or is it you just so simple minded as trying to establish barnyard pecking order? Your response to Chipotle was assinine, you of all people need the cookbooks. |

You see that nothing is going on, you feel no desire to post anything, then the threads start up again and you do a seagull number on the group, shitting on all the threads, make a big threatening scene when somebody disagrees with your radical liberal politics and then you go back to lurking. How about if you get lost and stay lost, and maybe some of the bottled taco sauce guzzlers and connoisseurs who can tell warm beer from ****water the morning after a party will leave too, and AFMC can get back to exchanging recipes and cooking tips. There will always be the newcomer who doesn't know that there are 50 slightly different versions of antojitos, so they will always have to be pointed in the right direction. |

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. You are so.... so? how would you define clueless and stupid in a nice way? Sorry, Booger, but I'm a Mod. Rep but old enough to know they will lie as well as you do also. I just believe a man should be judged a man regardless of where he was born unless proven otherwise, such as you continiously do. Yet, ya still cannot answer the question, can ya? Why do you come here? You answer that here in an minute, don't ya, Queenie? "AFMC can get back to exchanging recipes and cooking tips." You mean the Spanish language ones you take off the Internet and cannot translate correctly, nor know what the techniques/ingredients discussed involve? Yea, that is a good issue for you to continue to broach. One of these days you might get one accidentaly right. Hell, even a blind pig will gets an occasional acorn, so your turn should be next. Absolutely love this line you pose: "There will always be the newcomer who doesn't know that there are 50 slightly different versions of antojitos, so they will always have to be pointed in the right direction." Wait a minute Professor, are those Tacos and Tamales of which you speak? Say it is not so Booger, for you to discuss tacos, tamales, salsas, and tortillas is....is well, .....it is down right UnNorteno and most certainly UnAmerican! Why You ole Taco Queen you!! A little SoCal Mexican Hostest with the Mostest, You go girl! show us the light as you know it. Show us the slightly different versions of antojitos we don't seem to understand. But, please don't apply for a copyright with that BS statement! BTW, you are again incorrect, the Adobo being Annetto? no, no, no. And your ref to pure capsaicin at 1Mill SV, ahh, no, sorry? You need some new Bona Fides Booger, your old ones never did workvery well. Perhaps Don Quijote de la Mancha or some variation may be better suited to you. You both run along the same theme. |

You are mistaken on this one Booger, I have been in and out of AFMC for at least 10 years. Go search for some early Fish Taco recipes and you should figure out my old handle. Can't we all just get along? My main gripe with you is the over-use of cut and paste for any given whim. Your postings a while back of the different States of Mexico was pretty decent because it was a theme that you had thought out and felt you wanted to share. I don't think I slammed you for any of those. I cook with ingredients that appeal to me. I spent most of my adult life in the Produce and Seafood business. I like to fry, barbecue, bake and broil never making the same dish twice because I always use a little of this and a little of that. I've made cranberries the last few year for thanksgiving with fruit from the chiltepin plant I rescued from an old girlfriend's house and the hot and spicy sauce is destined to be a family tradition. It may not be authentic Mexican but it's good to me and my daughter. I read this group for inspiration, I don't take notes but I do take ideas and run with them. When I have addressed you directly in this group it is usually because you are lashing out at me or someone else for liking tacos and beans the gateway drug. |

Lots of Cumin in these traditional Mole recipes also. The Jamison's " The Border Cookbook" has much less cumin recipes than one would expect if the Norteno cumin myth held true. I do note cumin is a Mediterranean plant than a tropical so maybe as Mexico gets more Wal-marts and Costcos they will use more or perhaps just buy more Mc Donalds and KFC. |

... ==> Cumin in Mexican Recipes?! <== > I like it and use it all the time, but, as Wayne says, that's > just my taste, and that's what I've always > thought was most important about cooking anyway > - learning and adapting. Exactly! Recipes that are "handed down" are always adapted to the cook's tastes and ingredients available. Sometimes, substitutions are made for the better. > Even Linda Gonzalez used a bit of it in her > excellent red rice recipe, but as I remember, > she lived in California, and I have no idea > what her heritage was as far as Mexico. Linda G. lived in CA (LA, specifically) but, I believe, was also of Hispanic decent. She ran a very successful restaurant. The One That We Do No Name was always going off about his limited experiences and how anyone of non-Mexican decent couldn't possibly know anything about Mexican foods and history. Personally, I use simple amounts of cumin in lots of dishes. I've learned to like it a lot more since the first few times I used it... It's like coffee; an acquired taste. From Linda Gonzalez' June 8, 1998 post to afmc: This is my recipe for Mexican rice, Victor will probably say it's wrong, but what the hey, here goes Red Rice 1 tablespoon cooking oil, crisco or lard 1 cup long grain white rice 1 good size clove garlic,diced approx 1/8 tsp. black pepper 1/2 onion, diced 1 tomato, diced 1/4 cup tomato sauce pinch of ground comino 2 cups water 4 tsps. Knorr chicken bouillon granules ( or as sold in Mexican markets, Knorr caldo de pollo) Brown the rice in the oil,crisco or lard, over medium heat, stirring constantly so rice doesn't burn. Add the garlic,onion, black pepper,dash of comino and stir for a minute. Add the diced tomato and tomato sauce, stir until blended. Add the water and chicken granules and stir until thoroughly mixed. Bring to a boil, cover and lower heat and cook for 15-18 minutes, being careful to never lift the cover off the pan while the rice is cooking.Turn off the heat at the end of cooking time, let sit for 5 minutes, remove cover, fluff with a fork to blend seasonings and serve. Makes 3 cups cooked rice. (Note: salt is omitted because the chicken bouillon is salty enough) Linda |

I don't think I need Bayless's. (I've found his TV presence to be somewhat irksome; a bit on the chirpy side. Good information, though.) Since I grew up near Eagle Pass, TX, comino was always in the rice and in the frijoles refritos. > > The Jamison's " The Border Cookbook" has much less cumin recipes than one > would expect if the Norteno cumin myth held true. I haven't checked.. probably need to check the Patricia Quintana books, too. T. |

... [snip] > Thanks for the Linda info. It's a shame she's not > around here these days. Agreed. I seem to remember that there were health-related issues after she sold her restaurant that took away from her posting to Usenet. She was a solid participant and a great source of information. Maybe Senor Knothead can google her (since that's all he's capable of) and learn a little from her posts. Linda Magee was another fun poster from the past. ObFood: Al pastor and chile colorado are two different items but a local place I hit the other day didn't think I'd "notice." I was annoyed enough to get my money back and will not ever go back again. The Ranger |

I think your post all ties together, but yes I believe all cooking has best been described as adapting and then adopting. As to the cumin, I think it is mandatory in various Chili as well as used quite a bit in Norteno Beans cooking but I looked at several cook books from NM and as I mentioned the Jamisones' Border book. No Cumin in their Salsa del Norte, Guajillo Mild sauce, Pico de Gallo, NM Salsa Picante, Chimayo Red Chile sauce, Arizona Chile Colorado, Californio Colorado, Hatch Green Chile sauce, Tubac Chile Verde, nope no cumin, now the Tex-Mex Chili Gravy and the Ranchero Sauce in their book does have cumin. So it is just not as prevelent as some may think it to be. Yet, I do use it quite a bit in all my cooking to enhance and/or compliment flavor, both the seeds and powder. Cumin, OJ and chile is my favorite combo. |

Since this topic started some years ago I have discovered that the main difference between a typical Texas chili and say a Guadalajara birria, is the cumin. I love my Texas chili with lots of cumin. Hate cumin in my birria. Interesting. Live and learn. |
