Brunch ideas for Easter include muffins, salads, and dishes using fresh herbs.
"The response to our Frank's RedHot® Spicy Gummy Bears proved that consumers are ready and excited for swicy done right. With Cholula Chamoy, we're leaning even further into flavour mashups that feel authentic, craveable, and completely differentiated in the candy aisle."
Chef Aarón Sánchez stated, "It's actually something that's super inaccurate ... I think it's the destruction of humanity," referring to fried tortilla bowls and their lack of authenticity.
Food trends have never moved faster than they do now. With the power of social media, and particularly short-form video, a food can go from a concept in a lone creator's mind to an absolute phenomenon in a matter of hours.
[To make] Cajun-style deviled eggs, which actually sounds like a great idea, I would mix Creole mustard, Cajun spice, and crispy andouille into the egg yolk mix and garnish a piece of crispy andouille on top with charred corn kernels or crispy fried onions as well.
Venezuelan cuisine is a vibrant melting pot of its cultural influences, where Indigenous roots, African heritage, and Spanish flavors come together to create rich, satisfying dishes packed with character. Venezuela's food scene shares many similarities with those from other Latin American countries, but focuses more on building layers of sweet, savory, and tangy depth rather than turning up the heat with bold spices.
Going out to a restaurant every time you're craving fajitas can get expensive for some of us, and there may be times when you simply don't feel like leaving your house to get your fajita fix. Luckily, though, it's a lot easier than you may think to make fajitas at home.
Oversized burritos are more of a north-of-the-border staple. In Mexico, even in northern regions where burritos originate, they're practical and proportionate. This is owed to the differences between traditional Mexican cuisine and its American-adapted counterpart.
A small splash can brighten the sweetness of corn and add a subtle herbal lift. It should enhance - not dominate. Think of it as a squeeze of lime, ever so popular in Mexican food, in spirit form.
In our collective minds, pepperoni has only ever been a pizza topping. For so long now, it's been infinitely tethered to molten cheese, blistered crust, and greasy fingers, so much so that we forget there are still many creative ways to use pepperoni beyond pizza. At times, it even shows up in dishes you least expect. At 7 in the morning, amidst the repetitive spin of cooking up yet another omelet, this American salami is the surprising twist that makes breakfast a whole lot better.
The Mexican Pizza has been a Taco Bell fan favorite since it was first introduced to the menu back in 1985 - though it went by a different name back then, the Pizzazz Pizza. In its current form at the fast food chain, this dish consists of two layers of crisp flour tortillas with refried beans and seasoned ground beef sandwiched in the middle, and "Mexican Pizza Sauce," melted cheese, and diced tomatoes on top.
If you're starting the year with a healthy reset, then Japanese- Mexican restaurant Los Mochis has just the menu for you. Partnering with author and health and sustainability advocate Melissa Hemsley, the restaurants have given their classics a nourishing boost to support gut health, immunity and reduce inflammation. The partnership stems from both Melissa and Los Mochis working with The Felix Project, London's biggest food redistribution charity, to champion sustainability and prevent food waste.
Few things in life can set you up for a great day like a filling and delectable breakfast. But what do you do if you've finished your morning meal and find an untouched breakfast sausage remaining on the plate or some still uncooked in the fridge? Well, if you're hoping to avoid throwing away valuable food like the average family does, there's an easy way to repurpose those leftover sausages into a second meal: Use them in a breakfast-style quesadilla.
The best restaurants in Albuquerque tell a greater story of this city and state. Albuquerque's rich blend of traditional New Mexican cuisine and Route 66 roadside fare has evolved into one of the most unexpectedly diverse dining scenes in the Southwest. The Duke City's working-class vibes and demographic breadth has led to a tremendous spread of establishments- from hole-in-the-wall lunch spots to James Beard-recognized fine dining joints defining their own categories of place-based cuisine. So whether you're in pursuit of dishes that will transport your tastebuds around the world, or simply looking to sink your teeth into the best huevos rancheros or handheld burrito in the city, you can find it all here in the heart of the Land of Enchantment.
Forget jarred salsa - the homemade stuff is way better. Whether you're putting out a spread of chips and dip or you want to top your tacos with something bold and flavorful, homemade salsa always does the trick. But you don't have to stick with the same-old, same-old salsa recipes you use time and time again. By switching up your ingredients (and, occasionally, your technique), you can reimagine all of your favorite recipes in countless, flavorful ways.
My recipe makes the humble solo meal into a delicious dinner, resulting in a big batch all at once on a sheet pan that are beautifully crispy. I love that this feels like a whole new version of the classic quesadilla recipe: like Quesadillas 2.0. Here's how to whip up a pan of baked sheet pan quesadillas that are so good, everyone will be begging for more.
Tequila has spent a long time in the shadows of the spirits world. Unfairly stereotyped as a drink reserved for college bars and wild nights, its recent renaissance and the emergence of many popular tequila brands have shown the world that it's worth celebrating after all. And nowhere is this celebration more on display than at Ixi'im, a restaurant that claims to have the largest collection of tequila in the world - 3,435 bottles, to be exact.
The humble tortilla is an iconic food staple in Mexico. Everyone eats them, regardless of age or income. The ingredients for the tortilla I was frying in this photo have been fermented to include probiotics and prebiotics for gut health. My research focuses on developing such fermented nutraceuticals - nutritious products with pharmaceutical benefits - to help improve people's metabolic health and combat the malnutrition prevalent in some of Mexico's poorest communities.
Desperately seeking cemita breade Cemitas Mane Mane opened a month ago at 2193 Mission St. near 18th Street, in the space formerly occupied by KO, a popular all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant that closed late last year. The restaurant, as its name suggests, specializes in "Cemitas," a torta-like dish from the state of Puebla, just south of Mexico City. The business also serves atol (a corn drink), avena (oatmeal), Mexican cocoa, tacos and tortas. Cemitas Mane Mane is open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m, and will soon be open for breakfast as well
