Just back from 8 weeks driving around Mexico. I have fallen in love with Mexican food! I've done a bit of Mexican cooking at home but it's time to experiment a little. I had become competent at tamales and enchilada sauce and several meat dishes. On this trip I noticed chicharrones used as a filler for tacos, enchiladas and the like. I tried one. I loved it! The trick is to make a sauce from dried peppers a la enchilada sauce and then to simmer the fried pork skins until they soften. Then you use the chicharrones and the sauce as an ingredient. I got a sack to bring home and try. Can't wait!
Thinking about enchiladas, I was musing about what if I put a piece or two of bacon in an enchilada and followed that with an all-beef hot dog? Now that's a Mex fusion dish!
