    Lmao, chrissant? pain chocolate? Those damn frenchies and their naming of specific items, it’s all the same dough.

    Technically, these crassants were a failure. Butter cracked all over when laminating , butter seeped out during proofing, butter leaked out during baking, so these are closer to butter bread than crosshaunts, but we did devour them any they were delicious.

    Hopefully we do it technically better next time.

    Worth it? Like financially? I think so.

    The meat alone cost me 36 (before tax) and the peppers and spices about 10 to 15 (i have enough dried chillies leftover to do it again). These are NYC prices.

    Buying birria tacos typically runs 12-15 for two tacos and a serving of consumme. Those tacos usually only have a spoonfull of birria, so I definitely think it’s worth it.

    With this amount, I’ll be feeding for over a week. Whether it’s over some cilantro lime rice, next to a nopales (cactus) salad, inside a quesotaco, over chilaquiles or nachos. It’s definitely worth it.

    We are even going to use the gloop (the gloop is the strained out onion, tomatoes, chillies, and tiny tiny melted beef fibers) to try and make some homemade birria soup dumplings.









  • Chopped and Cheese are the only 2 requirements for this sandwich. Chopped could mean ground beef and onion, chicken and bacon, mushrooms and zucchini, etc and etc, as long as it’s chopped and easy to eat. Add cheese and you got a Chopped Cheese, lazy delicious bodega food.

    Roasted Garlic Mayo was the only other unique aspect, if it was plain mayo there’d be no need to mention it.

    Lmao, agreed.

    This was spur of the moment using left over chilli from a few days ago. If I made the chilli for this purpose, I would have gotten rid of the beans and zucchini, added a lot more peppers for heat, and reduced it alot more.

    Here’s a pic of my original vat of chili
