Tortillas

Tortillas

Yield: 10 10" Tortillas

Ingredients

---

• 2 heaping cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 tablespoons lard (Crisco works, as well)
• 1 cup hot water

Instructions

---

Use a whisk and mix together the dry ingredients. Next, use a wooden spoon to initially mix the dough until it gets to a shaggy state.

Flour your hands and fold in half until all the flour is incorporated.

Put flour on a work surface and dump the dough there.

Using a scale, portion out 60 grams of dough. This recipe will make about 10 10" tortillas.

Next, Ball up the dough into a nicely shaped ball.

Then flatten the ball. keeping it round. Each ball should be about 2.5" across and about 1/4" thick when done. This may be sticky, so put some flour on your surface and place the flattened ball on the surface to absorb some of the flour. Then stack the flattened balls.

Turn your skillet or griddle on to high. You want very high temperature. There will be smoke with this so turn on the fan on your range.

Using a rolling pin, flatten. The method I use is to put some flour on the surface, roll the dough flat north/south. This should make it about 1/3 as thin as it was.

Flip the dough over, putting more flour down. While doing that, rotate the dough 90 degrees. Now roll flat the east/west. It should be round- ish at this point.

Keep rolling until it's thin - very very thin. You want about 1/16" thick when done.

Toss onto your hot griddle. You'll need a big spatula. Pop the bubbles if they get too big. It's easier if you have two people, but you need to keep an eye on your cooking tortilla.

Try out the first one you make if you'r enew to this. It shouldn't be tough. If it's tough, roll it thinner or your baking powder may be dead.

Repeat the process until all tortillas are cooked.

Notes

---

Like anything to do with baking/flour, the quantity of tortillas could change based on temperature and humdity.

Healthy recipes for the picky eater

Hi! I'm super new to reddit and am not quite sure how to use it but I was wondering if anyone could suggest cookbooks or recipes for a picky eater who is trying to be healthy. I have trouble trying new things and am looking for a way to change my diet for the better. Any suggestions?

Had a dream that I made the perfect Mexican rice, so now I'm compelled to make it this weekend. Any tips for a flavorful batch?

I think I have the ingredients down, as many of the recipes call for the same array of items, but all suggestions are welcome (especially in the veggies and garnishes department! I love me some texture). However, the amount of liquids required vary in the recipes I've encountered. I prefer the rice on the drier/less sticky side, so I am also specifically looking for a magic ratio of liquid-to-rice if anyone has that!

Ingredient List (so far):

-long grain white rice

-tomato

-onion (doesn't specify white or yellow)

-garlic

-cilantro

-lemon/lime juice (I'll probably use both, I love the tang)

-chicken broth

-tomato paste

-cumin

-olive or canola oil

-salt

-chili peppers (not sure which to use, I've seen serrano, jalapeño, green, & hatch all mentioned)

-chili powder

-annatto & turmeric for color

Garnishes to choose from so far (again not sure what is best here or if there are others I'm not aware of):

-peas

-corn

-carrots

-onion

-cilantro

-bell pepper

-tomato

-green onion

-beans

Sweet Carrots

Total Time: 20 mins

1 1/2 c. clean, raw carrots

2 tbsp. butter

1 clementine orange, washed and peel on

2 tbsp. brown sugar

6 whole cloves

1 c. water

Quarter the clementine. Slice the carrots widthwise (so they look like circles) into small but not tiny pieces. You'll want thinner cuts at the thick end of the carrot and thinner cuts near the narrow end so the carrots cook evenly.

Place the clementine pieces in a small saucepan and add the butter and cloves, melting the butter over low heat. Be careful not to burn the butter, which will require you to either swirl the pan or stir the contents often.

Add the carrots to the melted butter mixture and coat the carrots in the pan while still over low heat. Cook for two minutes, stirring frequently, again making sure your butter does not burn.

Add the brown sugar, coat the carrots quickly and then add the water. The water does not need to cover all the carrots. Increase burner heat to medium and cover.

Cook carrots 15 minutes or until tender but still firm, stirring occasionally. Carrots are done when you can stick a fork in them easily. If they break apart when you do this, you've cooked them a little too long.

Remove carrots from glaze and serve warm.

I want to make some coconut chicken curry with my crock pot tonight but the last time I made it, it turned out okay. What can I do to make it amazing?

This is the recipe I wanted to make. It was my first time making curry with my crock pot a few days ago and it turned out okay. It smelt great but I couldn't really taste the spices that I added. Maybe it was because I used peanut butter instead of tomato sauce? It also turned out super oily which was probably because I added too much coconut oil. I wanted to add vegetables too but I don't know which vegetable would taste good with it.

I want to make it again today but I want it to be better this time. Any tips for a sweet, creamy, and flavorful curry (without tomato sauce though cause I don't have any right now)?

Any cheesecake recipes that don't require sugar?

And I don't mean replacing sugar with some type of artificial sweetener.

Also, is sugar necessary for the structural integrity of a cheesecake or can it be left out completely?

My mom wants a cheesecake for New Years Eve but due to health concerns will not eat sugar. I personally don't like the taste of splenda and the like. Are there recipes that don't require any sugar period? I would like to rely on the other ingredients to keep it tasty but I will be making a fruit topping as a side for people who want it sweeter.

I've tried looking stuff up online but everything seems they still require some type of sugar.

REUBEN WONTONS WITH HOMEMADE RUSSIAN DRESSING

Link: Recipe W/ Photos

A spin-off on the classic Reuben sandwich, these Reuben Wontons are easy-to-make and fun to eat. Serve with this homemade Russian Dressing for dipping.

Recipe type: Appetizer
Serves: Approx 54 wontons
Ingredients
• Wontons
• ¼ lb corned beef, roughly chopped
• ¼ cup green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 cup sauerkraut, drained
• ¼ cup parmesean cheese, shredded
• 1 package Wonton Wrappers (about 54)
• 2 Tablespoons canola oil (or other oil for high heat)

Russian Dressing
• 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
• ¼ cup onion, diced
• ½ cup mayo
• ¼ cup plain greek yogurt
• 1 Tablespoon ketchup
• 1 Tablespoon vinegar
• 2 teaspoon Sriracha sauce (or other hot chili sauce)
• Green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish.

Mix all ingredients. Adjust heat level to taste. Garnish with green onions.

Instructions Prepare your Wonton making station. You will need a small bowl of room-temperature water for sealing the Wontons.

Working with one wonton at a time, place a heaping teaspoon of corned beef in the center of your wonton wrapper. Add about a teaspoon of sauerkraut, a pinch of parmesan cheese, and a few slices of green onion. This should all add up to about a tablespoon of ingredients.

Dip you finger into the water and run across adjacent edges of the wonton wrapper to wet. Fold the wonton wrapper corner-to-corner. Press firmly to seal edges. With wet fingers, wrap the two other corners to overlap over the center filling. Set aside.

Add 1 tablespoon oil to a hot frying pan over medium heat. (Temperature may vary)

Working in two batches, add wontons one at a time to hot pan. Cook until browned on one side. Flip wontons and cook until browned.

Remove wontons and place on a paper towel lined plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.

Repeat with second batch.

Pasta Arugula Salad

Blog Post with Pictures

This is my favorite salad. It's suitable for most occasions and can serve as a main or side dish. It takes around 20 minutes to prepare.

The ingredients (in a copyable fashion):

• 500 g Pasta
• 250 g Mini Tomatoes
• 250 g Mozzarella
• 125 g Arugula
• 100 g Green Pesto
• 2 Tablespoons Honey
• 2 Tablespoons Mustard
• 1 Handful Grinded Parmesan Cheese

Cook the pasta as described on the package (al dente). While the pasta is cooking you can cut the mozzarella and the tomatoes. I divide the tomatoes once or twice, depending on their size. The mozzarella is cut into pieces roughly the same size as the tomato pieces.

Add everything to the bowl, except the arugula! It takes a long time mix everything up if you add the arugula directly. Mix the ingredients until everything is coated than add the arugula and mix it again.

White Chocolate Cranberry Macademia Nut Cookies

These things are always a hit around Christmas, they're beautiful, festive, and delicious! They are also an interesting twist on Christmas cookies. I don't know about you guys, but I find myself getting a little bored with the usual cookie routine, it's nice to have something a little different.

Ingredients(they're in the wrong order because I just copied and pasted from a table on google docs):

1 cup butter flavor crisco

2 ½ cups flour

¾ cup granulated sugar

1tsp baking soda

¾ cup light brown sugar

½ tsp salt

2 eggs

1 cup fresh cranberries

1tsp vanilla

⅔ cup macadamia nuts

2T milk

1 package white chocolate chips

Method:

-Preheat Oven to 375°

-Rinse, dry, and pick through cranberries(they should be hard, bouncy, and sound hollow)

-Check nuts for discolored ones and chop nuts, and berries.

-Place nuts and berries in a bowl and sprinkle with some flour, set aside.

-Combine crisco and sugars in a large bowl.

-Once mixture is light and fluffy, add eggs and vanilla.

-In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt

-Alternate adding milk and flour to sugar mixture, mix well after each addition.

-Fold in nuts, berries, and chips

-Drop cookies onto baking sheet lined with parchment paper

-Bake 8-10 minutes(cookies will appear moist, don’t over bake if you want chewy cookies)

I honestly prefer them with less white chocolate... I'm not really a fan of the stuff. I don't think it should be left out though, and she has told me milk chocolate is NOT an okay substitute in this case.

I hope everyone enjoys this recipe as much as we do, merry Christmas!!

Looking to raise the level of my Christmas ham

Hello! I've purchased a nice sized smoked ham shank from my local grocery store and wanted to ask if anyone had any recipes, tricks, tips etc to make it a better meal. All I really have are the basic instructions to set the oven at the temp and stick it in for the alotted time. Is there something I could coat the ham with, veggies that go well with it in the oven, or anything like that? I'm not a fan of honey glaze or really adding any sweetness but that's all I've found so far. Thanks for any advice in advance!

Trying to make a cherry timbit recipe?

I want to make a batch of cherry timbits (AKA donut holes) as they stopped selling them at Tim Horton's. I've found this glazed sour cream donuts recipe, which is close to what I'm looking for - I'd prefer fried to baked to get as close as possible to the original taste - but I'm not sure how to alter the recipe to get the cherry taste.

For those unaware, the cherry timbits were basically balls of fried cherry flavored cake (there weren't whole pieces of cherry, but the cake was reddish-pink and had little red dots in it) and had a simple glaze. I think the glaze from this recipe looks pretty good.

Anyway, I'm not sure if I should start with some cherry cake mix from the store (if you can even make fried donuts from that), or make them from scratch, but again, not sure what to add or substitute to get that nice cherry flavor.

Thanks!
