Agreed! I'd love to see some specifically using a molcajete too!

@Bojoschannel 2 ай бұрын

90% of salsas here consist of the same things in different proportions: tomatoes and/or tomatillos, onion, garlic, dry and/or fresh chilis, cilantro and salt. Lime, avocado, vinegar and spices are present to a lesser degree, but if you want to create your own salsa or just try new ones just play with the first 7 ingredients around, you'll be surprised at how easy and delicious it is

@sergiokieri3137 2 ай бұрын

@@Bojoschannelthat’s true, it is all really similar but there is more to try. First there are more dried chilies, ancho is probably my favorite as it is very fruity and smoky. Next is the chipotle which is dried jalapeños, chipotle is easily the smokiest and most pronounced. Jalapeños are funny as they are very different dried, fresh and pickled, buy a can of Mexican pickled jalapeños and enjoy the sweet heat. Third favorite is the pasilla, this is the sweetest chile and has very little heat, you can use this as backup to add dimension to other chiles or on its own. The other thing is process. Chef here talked about molcajete but didn’t show it. Crushing a salsa slowly not pureeing it adds to the mouthfeel. Also you can strain a pure to make it smoother or emulsify an oil into it to whip it up. Roast the tomatoes on dry heat for much longer, tomatoes are hearty and are hard to ruin, I make a salsa where I roast them for 40 minutes on a dry heat until they almost stew and it’s delicious. Same is true for tomatillos, fry them in oil, blanch them, use them raw, fire roast them, all adds subtle differences.

Some CC issues I noticed 4:53 the [Indistinct] caption is "Mise en Place." 6:32 [Speaks in foreign language] is "Molcajete, a mortar and pestle." He's describing the tools he would normally use in place of the food processor. 7:11 "Brine" should be bright, he's talking about brightening the vegetables by adding acids. There are a couple other times, but at 7:39 the two instances of "crunch" should be crush. 11:06 [Speaks in foreign language] is Sancochar, it means to parboil/cook in Spanish. I love this guy, a couple of little specifics can get lost in CC translation so I hope this helps anyone wondering.

The cc is AI generated by KZfaq. You’ll notice it’s not great with accents either. Crush instead of crunch or [indistinct] when it can’t come up with a word. It’s kind of frustrating. I’ve been noticing it with some of the movie streaming services too. One that drives me nuts is that AI captions screaming as [🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵].
