So, I lost my Mom 2 years ago (at age 68) unexpectedly. She taught me everything I know about cooking. She was from San Luis Potosi. With all she taught me, there are still some recipes that I never got a chance to get that are very dear to my heart. You have helped me so much (even brought me to tears to be honest) in making comforting dishes that I grew up on and bring me back to times in my life with her that I thought were gone forever. I know it's just food but it was during cooking with my Mom that we laughed and loved each other. I loved being with her. I just wanted to say thank you. There are so many things I felt like I was cheated out of by her passing. Now with your help and guidance it feels like she is still here and I can now pass more down to my daughter (she is 18 month) who was not able to meet her Abuela. Sorry for the long rambling comment. I just wanted you to know that you are doing for me. I appreciate you very much. I have been so lost with out her. You have helped me find my way back to the happiest parts of my life with her. 😍 Thank you.
What beautiful comments about your mother. Those of us who are/were close to our mothers are the luckiest on earth. She will always be with you, and you will keep her alive by telling your daughter all about her. She will feel that she knows her.
@@rhondaf2214 thank you for your kind words and taking time out of your day to say something so positive and uplifting. We are in such crazy time right now and you forget how much you miss the warmth, kindness and understanding of others in a world of social distancing. I will make sure I tell my daughter about my Mom. She was amazing and I hope to be half the woman and mother that she was.
Im so sorry for your loss! I unfortunately was never close to my mom the way I would have liked during my adult life that is 😕 although when I was a little girl I was such a mommy's girl. Things change I guess! 🤷♀️ best of luck to you!
Sorry for your loss. I also lost my mom this summer and she too taught me how to cook. The last thing she taught me to cook before she passed away was her cornbread dressing. It's still hard for us especially this month because her birthday is in October.
I've never thought about making a corn starch / water base to seal my flautas. Thank you for sharing this great video I love flautas. God bless you and your family always.
Yum Vegan Chorizo! I've never heard of using cornstarch and water to seal it. I was taught to seal Flautas with toothpicks. Can't wait to try with Vegan Chorizo. (I'm vegetarian.) 😋 Thank You!!!
I made this last night and it was so good! I even had vegan chorizo (made from seitan) which I made non-vegan by sauteing the potatoes and chorizo in bacon grease. LOL Thanks for sharing your recipes with us!
I just started watching you today you are amazing cook and you make some easy recipes thank you your such a blessing cause especially times like today we all like making easy and delicious meals thank you for sharing!!!💜
Hi back to you! I'm way out in the NE Nevada (USA southwest state) & nights might freeze but days warm so far. What season are y'all in now? I'm about to dig up some potatoes see how many & how big did they grow. I'm having to learn anew how grow plants in this climate (I'm from lush woodsy rains a lot Texas so I've gone from 9 months summer w/3months winter to total opposite plus soil here has lots of minerals due to hold silver sulphur turquoise mining area but hardly any rain.& summers are.brutal hot). Anyway.just wanted to reach out & return your greeting. Be blessed! I'm Granny Mack in my 70s living off grid past couple years learning how to survive in this place. Til I moved here I never really knew Cold b4. Gotta work hard get enough firewood. Just wondering what's it like where you are. Our community is very helpful to each other & tolerant. We've got people from all over America---came to get mining or trucking jobs end up staying. No building codes or costly $ plus rules here can build homestead as you can. Texas kept attracting city-type liberals who must control every aspect of your life. We're trying to avoid spread of communist/marxist/socialism here so we're in charge of our own destiny, food, work, rather than government dictating everything and stealing from us. Take care & write me back? 😊
oh YUM!! This will be lunch tomorrow!! I have plenty of chorizo, potatoes, tortillas and cheese always on hand!!! and I definitely need to try the corn starch method to seal the tortillas. I've only used toothpicks! THANK YOU!!
Trader Joe's vegan chorizo is AWESOME!! My wife is a vegetarian and she loves it. We mostly put it in with scrambled eggs (and chopped/sauted onion) I actually prefer it to pork/meat chorizo.
Those look so yummy. It's funny because I don't like corn tortillas for the most part (corn chips, Yes). Brushing them with oil first to make them pliable...that technique should work really well in my air fryer. ty!
So we have always called these rolled tacos and flautas are made with flour tortillas. Must be the west portion of Mexico by TJ. That is one thing I've noticed in the South compared to the West Coast.
I must make these for my husband! He quite frequently orders them when we eat out. I have made some of your recipes and they are all delicious! Thank you!
I’ve seen vegan chorizo at the store, but have been too scared to try it. After watching your video I’m going to buy some. Your taquitos looked so delicious!
First I would like to thank you for your channel. Your dishes are close to what I grew up eating. In your beans in a pressure cooker was really good. But I did noticed that you served them in a clay bowl. My question is where can I find the bowls? I have been looking for years. Thank you again please keep sharing!
Yes that is actually what flautas are in the west side of Mexico. Rolled tacos are traditionally with corn tortillas and flautas are flour. I know different parts of Mexico call things different names. I grew up in San Diego though and our side of Mexico calls these rolled tacos. When you roll your flour tortillas use a little flour paste to seal before frying so they stay together.
