Roasted salss

This recipe can absolutely just go in a blender but I have this molcajete so I want to keep it in good shape.

I bring a cold cast iron with about a tbls of oil to a medium high heat add

● 3 roma tomatoes (these will take the longest to roast skin may stick its fine. Scrape that skin out of the pan don't leave it behind.) I smash the tomatoes last and one at a time carefully tomato juice is hot so let cool some. Go in too fast and hot and you will get burned.

As a kid growing up God forbid you're in charge of making salsa and you complain about getting hot tomato juice on you. 😡

●1 or 2 jalapeños depending on desired spice want more spice go with serrano or 1 jalapeño 1 serrano. Roast until all sides are blackened and peppers are soft. Peppers are done after the onion. Cut the tops and rough chop so they smash easily. I don't leave the seeds out I throw them in.

● 1/4 onion roast all sides it may fall apart in segments thats okay it will cook faster Onion is usually next after the garlic. Smash with the garlic it should be like a paste

● 3 garlic cloves skin on.( A wild thing may happen its happened to me before a garlic clove may jump out of the pan) the garlic will roast faster than ever thing else once the paper is all toasty brown and the garlic is soft it will squish right out of the paper. Remove the paper and smash with a pinch of salt.

● half a lime juice. Salt to taste.

● I chop in cilantro in the end. Don't like it leave it out.

I received this molcajete from my husband's grandmother 🥺

I made Sandwich rolls on the same day I told my husband I wasn't going to bake anything that day. But its such a quick recipe and bread baking is all waiting anyways.

I love the way home made marshmallows melt in hot cocoa and float on top so you get a sip of this gooey marshmallow and cocoa at the same time. My favorite hot cocoa with marshmallows, cinnamon, chocolate pieces one of the lord of the rings playing on tv is critical to my hot cocoa experience along with chicken cup.

Chocolate Caramel rice krispy treat. So gooey. A midnight bake I can stop thinking about. Until I think of ways to improve it.

Iced sugar cookies. I used the flooding technique because I've never piped icing before and that seemed the easiest way. I'm just a 32yo lady with disposable piping bags tooth picks and insomnia. Also not so pro tip gel food coloring adds water to the icing making the icing loose. So when I say I used the flooding technique I mean I had no choice but to use it on the fly.

Pochita go Pochita stop

This is the single macaron cookie that didn't break during the bake. Still such a delicious cookie. Also you can barely see it but there is a bit of chocolate ganache in the middle. My first time making macarons but I'm hoping to get better by my birthday in April for a special birthday treat.
