@emglow101, I am very supportive of this endeavor of yours. You WILL nail the bread, trust me.
As for the rellenos, let me send you a recipe. They’re my very favorite, and I almost never order them out, since I’m always disappointed. Firstly, I use some nice thick poblano Chile’s and roast the skins off. I use half Tillamook medium cheese, finely grated, and finely grated Tillamook pepper jack for the other half. Will be continued tomorrow, I promise!!
Like small h I really like relleno casserole, made one with green chile sauce about a month ago. I only like rellenos with the egg batter and in some ways prefer the Herdez salsa casera right out of the can more than other salsas for them. My trick for pan frying them is to plop down some batter into the pan first, then lay down the chile cut side down into it and let it cook, then plop down the batter on the upper side, then turn it over. Much easier, for me at least, than trying to pre-batter them.
My favorite ordering at Mexican restaurants was always the Chile rellenos. Project for this weekend
You got it, will post tomorrow am with notes! Hope you love them!
here’s my fail safe for hard boiled eggs: place eggs in saucepan; cover with cold water; bring to boil; after 1 minute, turn off heat and cover. i these before i go to be and just let them sit over night.
every once and a while, i get one that’s hard to peel, but they are few and far between.
As promised, recipe for Chiles Rellenos - we only make cheese ones, sometimes using a toothpick to hold them together. Perfection!
I do like picadillo!
I like picadillo too, but more so in empanadas. Love just the cheese rellenos, but have had other interesting fillings at restos very occasionally, and never at Mexican restaurants usually. Did have a good shredded pork one at a Mexican restaurant in Orange County once - was a good exception to my typical rule.
Thank you. I appreciated it. I have done this before and wanted to try again. Well, I failed again.
These days I do it sous vide. Not (soft/hard) boiled but when done I just crack it open and the very soft, slow-cooked egg falls out of the shell.
