Ola Everyone! I was wondering if anyone here has ever heard of a red mole sauce? Years ago I went to a Mexican Wedding Reception and they served Chicken Mole. The Mole was nore of a red sauce. It reminded me of Enchilada Sauce but better. The only Mole Sauce I can find is the chocolate version. Its good but not the way I remember it. If anyone knows what I'm talking about I would love to get a...
Get some disposable gloves (I use a cheap latex) for next time and shampooing your hair might help. The hairs get under your nails and the shampoo helps remove the capsasin oils that cause the heat. HTH! I've been there many times.
Soak them in milk or cream ... it will soothe. Water is an enemy to oil, and the burn you are feeling is from the oil in the peppers ~ stay away from using water. If ever touching your face, those two options are not as easy, and can be remedied by sour cream (also heard that some use yogurt).
Years of experience working with peppers (I've been burned!!!). Always using gloves is the ...
My husband is also from Michoacan; we like enchiladas, carne apache, posole, ensalada de nopalitos.... there are so many! Sometimes we just have his homemade refried beans with queso fresco and corn tortillas for dinner; talk about simple (and cheap). I like chorizo with potatoes, we're not big egg eaters. Another thing he likes is homemade salsa heated in the skillet with queso (usually we use ...

Are there any true mexican dishes on zaar... what would you recommend i try to make if i'm looking for an authentic mexican dish??

It's a big country - lots of different styles of real food. Is there something in particular you like? My favorites are the veracruz and yucatec seafood dishes, but that's maybe not the most typical. There's an enchilada thread here not too long ago that has a nice variety of real dishes, and mostly with fairly available ingredients. That might be a good starting point, then explore other recipes...
I'm not sure what the difference between SW and Tx-Mx is, but the difference between those two and authentic, traditional Mexican could be loosely defined by the seldom use of canned or pre-made ingredients outside of canned jalapenos, the occasional tomato sauce and excluding traditional spice blends and pastes (such as mole or achiote). Traditional Mexican recipes usually are very old, many ...
Sometimes "southwestern" gets applied to an upscale nouveau cuisine, not beans and rice at all. Very trendy maybe 15 years ago. Think Sante Fe, for example. But sometimes it is more the indigenous dishes Mami was describing. (Keep in mind that Mexico used to include most of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Colorado, so it was all "mexican" once, and before that all "american" indigenous.)...

That made me think of something: fresh tomatoes and onions are an essential part of Mexican cooking. In my house, as well as in anyone's down here, they are consumed every day in at least one meal.
Thank you to both of you! I appreciate your responses. I'm looking forward to trying the rojo mole. As soon as I do I'll let you guys know if this is the one. Again thank you much!
I would LOVE to find a recipe for Herrera's restaurant's sour cream enchiladas, which I had about 20 years ago! Something made me think of them and I am obsessing now. LOL I've Googled this into the ground with no results. It had a beef filling, and the most delicious sour cream sauce. Does anybody have an idea how I can make this outstanding meal?
I have used sandwich wrap paper a found at Sam's club. I'm sure any Costco or any price club would have them too. I get 1000 12 x 12 sheets in a box. I initially bought them in lieu of parchment, to line my baking pans when I baked. When I started trying to make tamales, I found that working with the corn husks was very difficult for me (I have a condition in my hands that makes it hard to hang on to several little husks while...
I'm not sure you'll lose any flavor by using parchment because the masa is plenty flavorful. I'll guarantee they'll come out of the parchment very easily!
I can't vouch for how good this particular recipe is (they're definitely not my favorite holiday food), but probably something like http://madeleinecocina.com/?p=1031
