TAQUITOS

Tortilla's

I made some new tortilla's at my class this week

The recipe is as follow:

I ground in my electric mill 2 cups of spelt

1 cup of brown rice

1 cup of barley

Then I put 6 cups of this mixture in my Bosch Mixer bowl with the dough hook

I added 2 cups of high gluten flour

2/3 cup of canola oil

1 tablespoon of salt

3 cups of the hottest water out of you tap

I mix this all together in my Bosch bowl and knead it for 5 minutes.

If you touch this dough and if it is still to sticky make sure you sprinkle in a little more flour before you knead it. Then I press them out in the tortilla press and cook them.

Next recipe is what I use for the taquitos

2 breast of shredded cooked chicken

I shredded this chicken in my Bosch bowl with the cookie paddles.  Just hit your little M button on your Bosch about 3 times and it will shred it perfect.

Take the chicken out of the Bosch bowl.

Put in 1 pkg. of 8 ounce cream cheese

6 heaping Tablespoons of sour cream

1/2 cup of finely chopped onion (green onion if you would like)

1/4 cup of minced fresh cilantro (optional)

1/4 teaspoon of cumin

1/2 teaspoon of seasonal salt

1/2 teaspoon of chili powder

1/2 of a lime that has been squeezed

1/4 teaspoon of pepper

Mix this all together then add 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese to the mixture.  Mix well in the Bosch mixture then add the chicken, and mix. You can add 1/2 cup of the dressing that is below.  Or just leave as is, and dip it in the dressing below.

When this is done.  I put a couple of Tablespoons across your tortilla in the middle.  Then I wrap them up, put them on a cookie sheet and rub the tops with olive oil.   Bake them on 400 degrees for 10 minutes until they get a little crisp.

Creamy Cilantro Dressing

Place the following in the Bosch blender and blend together.

½ cup buttermilk

½ cup mayonnaise

½ cup sour cream

1 pkg. dry ranch buttermilk dressing mix

½ bunch of cilantro or more if you would like (1 cup)

1/2 of an onion

2 cloves crushed garlic

4 golden peperoncini (Bottled) They look like jalapeno peppers except they are bottled

1 lime juiced

1 tsp. sugar or Xagave

Mix all the ingredients together in Bosch blender and refrigerate for one hour.  Excellent on a pulled pork salad or tortilla’s or anything you would like to put it on.  Last I make some great salsa.  I just chop up some onion and tomato with some cilantro.  I add a little bit of lime and some salt and pepper.  It is so good with this meal.  You can add some of this to you chicken mix as well but I prefer putting it on the side.
