Recipe covered this week Nopales en Chipotle Adobado: Nopales in Chipotle Sauce Pavo con Salsa de Achiote a la Yucataneca: Yucatán-Style Steamed Turkey in Achiote Sauce Pickled Red Onions Arroz Blanco: White Rice Salsa de Jitomate Cocida: Cooked Tomato Sauce Churros Mexican Hot Chocolate Pico de Gallo The recipes that I prepared was the Nopales and the tomato sauce. I also broke down the turkey in which Chef Alissa stated that I did a very good job leaving very little meat on the carcass.
Chef said that the tomato sauce had good consistency and the flavors were well balance. I have been working on my use of salt. Chef also stated that nopales were cleaned and prepped properly and cooked appropriately so they were not slimy. She felt that the Nopales were a little too spicy, but had good balance otherwise. Sould have reduced the amount of chipotles used in recipe. Turkey was shredded well. Overall I felt that this menu really shows the differences in flavor between traditional Mexican and Tex - Mex cuisine.
