Did you know the humble little meatball has a starring role in the Mexican kitchen? In this episode, Rick sees traditional versions of albondingas in the old-school Bar Mancera and modern versions in hipster haven Cicatriz. There’s even a meatball torta thrown in for good measure. And because sometimes a “best-ever” recipe needs to be something that gets to the table quickly, Rick makes crowd-pleasing versions suitable for weeknight cooking.

I can't wait to make the shrimp and pork albodingas. I live in Metro Phoenix AZ and am lucky enough to live about 4 hours away from a small fishing village, Puerto Penasco MX, on the Sea of Cortez. It has the most OUTSTANDING seafood I've ever tasted. So next time my husband and I go back I'm going to load up on the shrimp......that is if I don't eat it all when I'm there! Thanks Rick!

Fish albondigas is new to me, and I'm from Mexico city and go there regularly. May be popular, like he said in Mazatlan and that region. But they look delicious.

En casa, hacemos las albóndigas un poco diferentes: molemos en el molcajete ajo, cebolla, cominos, sal y hierbabuena; se agrega la carne molida, un poquito de arroz cocido al vapor (para que salgan ligeras) y el huevo para lugar. Se forman las bolitas y las ponemos a cocer en agua hirviendo con ajo y cebolla, ya cocinadas y lista la salsa de jitomate con uno o dos chiles serranos abiertos y fritos, se le agregan las albóndigas y un poco del caldo donde se cocinaron. En casa, es un guisado caldoso y en muchas partes de México incluso le ponen verduras al caldillo

When I was growing up, my Mom would make her albodingas with white fish like tilapia mixed with beaten eggs, cooked like a "patty" with sauteed onions and tomatoes, vera cruz style topped with cilantro and slices of lemon.

Albondigas, my favorite soup yet don't have it much. It's time to treat myself after Lent. I do eat red meat on occasion but reducing. Red meat is harder on the digestive system. I go mainly for turkey or chicken and fish of course. I wish Rick B would make a turkey version. But Albondigas with beaf on occasion would be fine. One matter is when I need as binder I use Hemp Hearts for me it works good on turkey burgers and I add a little avocado or olive oil. I'll try Rick's recipe without the pork. I'm not Jewish just trying to get away from fats that may tend to clog the arteries. Thanks Rick B. 🖖✌️🫕🙂 Albondigas

I don't know anything about wine so recipes that call for it stump me. No idea what I'm looking for at the store. Is it worth it to make the second sauce without wine?

@daphnepearce9411 Жыл бұрын

If your not opposed to adding wine to a recipe then , yes, I think it's worth it to add it, it gives the recipe and extra bit of flavor zing to it! But add it first(I mean the first liquid ingredient) to the recipe and let it cook down a bit until you can't smell the alcohol anymore, then usually the next thing to add is stock/or broth. If you add it all at once then you'll end up with a raw alcohol flavor that no bueno! As far as what wines to buy, I'll usually buy the single serve bottles in a six pack, in the grocery store.....like say, Sutter Homes, fairly cheap and usually on sale, and use the according to the recipe. So just to make life easier I buy both sauvignon blanc(dry white wine)and cabernet sauvignon(dry red wine), that way I have both on hand. Enjoy!

@julinbahlmann613 Жыл бұрын

It's easy. Red wine for red meats. White wine for seafood. Pork can go either way. Wine can be sweet or "dry." Read the labels at the supermarket! Dry red wines pair with beef steak better. Sweet red wines pair with tomato and barbecue dishes. White sweet wine is great for shrimp and cream/cheese sauces. Dry white wine is better for fish fillets. First rule of wine for cooking is to avoid using cheap wine, or worse "cooking wine." The reason is that when the alcohol and water evaporate, the flavors are concentrated. All you want to do is boil the wine in the sauce to evaporate the alcohol. It's actually really easy, but you need to add the wine little by little and test for taste regularly. The whole process only takes a few minutes.

@Julin Bahlmann Excellent! I think port wine goes good with bbq. Agree with everything you said. And yes, cooking wine is God awful!!! Don't use it. Ever!

Why is the intro music so incredibly LOUD and then the dialog is super quiet? Could your editing team maybe equalize the volume on the intro and credits? or better yet increase the volume on the main part of the episode since it's way quieter than most videos on KZfaq. I really like these videos, but they are difficult to watch.

I’ve always said Rick is one of the best ambassadors for Mexican cuisine. But for the life of me I can’t understand his affinity for canned tomatoes. You can’t hide that taste. And the fire roasted version is too much in any brand name.
