freedom from recipes, and power to be inspired, create, and substitute!

For those who just can't follow recipes....for those who are just inspired by ingredients, places, and delicious design...and most importantly for those who need more creativity in their life....This blog harkens back to the days before recipes were much more like musings, and narratives of creating environments and expressions of culture. We aim to inspire, not to instruct. This blog is a record of experiments, successful and unsuccessful, and any contributions from others who share the dare.....

christmas day chilaquiles--play johnny cash while making

well i think holidays are for new traditions as well as old.  chilaquiles is made for christmas day, easy to make, but fun and not everyday.  another freestyle special, because you really can't make a mistake.  just bathe freshly fried tortilla chips in a salsa (i always prefer verde) and add cheese, eggs, chorizo or bacon, and get it in the broiler.  breakfast nachos!!!  i forgot to photo making the salsa verde, which i made the day before, but it includes tomatillos (cut up) simmered in a little broth, with serrano chiles.  nice hotness 2lb tomatillos to 8 serrano chiles.  Then blend with onion and garlic till smooth.  YUM.
frying the tortillas, use stale fresh corn ones, tear up and then fry in canola oil

ingredients, crumbled chorizo, queso fresco and
scrambled eggs with buttermilk and cilantro

perfection--after turning tortilla chips in salsa verde,
add ingredients on top, put in broiler and add mexican crema
