Thanks for that PB cake recipe. I didn’t have smooth pb so used the chunky kind and it worked just fine adding a little crunch. The frosting is wonderful. I can imagine it on banana bread or a carrot cake or a dark fudge cake.
Howdy Howdy!
Reporting for cooking.
There are a couple of recipes I’ll try to get posted today. Can’t right now because I’m busy in the kitchen and Mrs p6 is leaving in a bit to help out our daughter who is 8/9 of the way to giving birth to our 5th grandchild.
One recipe is from my favorite YouTube cook who made something special and easy for valentines day. So easy I think I can do it without messing it up!
Oops...have to run...Mrs p6 is calling.
1 large Flank Steak
2 Cloves Garlic chopped
1/2 bunch Cilantro chopped
2-4 chopped hot peppers, Cayenne or Serrano preferred.
Juice of 3 oranges or 3/4 cup of orange juice
Juice of 3 limes or 3/8 cup of lime juice
2/3tsp salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
Mix together all ingredients in medium casserole then turn the steak over in marinate 2-3 times. Refrigerate 2 hours then turn the steak over and refrigerate for 2 more hours.
While starting a VERY hot grill, warm up you favorite tortillas and prepare Pico de Gallo.
Pico de Gallo: 1 medium onion finely chopped. 1/2 bunch cilantro chopped. 1 tomato chopped, if desired. 2 hot pepper chopped, if desired. Squirt of lime juice, mix everything up.
Grated cheese, but use the RIGHT cheese. Very sharp, very salty. I use Cotija but Romano or a very sharp white cheddar will do.
Grill the steak on the very hot grill for 5 mins on each side. Your target is Medium.
Let steak cool for 5 mins on a platter then slice thinly across the grain.
Yes, it's OK to taste it. Heavenly.
Place the steak in a warm tortilla, top with Pico de Gallo, your favorite MEXICAN style hot sauce (no, not salsa from a jar...use La Victoria, Cholula etc.) then sprinkle the cheese over the top.
Enjoy:)
Oh, the best Carne Asada ever just turned into the best taco you ever ate.
