August 7Aug 7 Was looking for salt pork and came across this. Burgers’ Smokehouse has been making damn good aged country ham for 100 years. My old man still sends me their bacon and jowl sampler for Christmas. This stuff made some great Sichuan dry fried green beans.

Perhaps it contributes to the overall flavor profile though. It makes a good taco and I'd buy it again.

September 7Sep 7 I usually roll my own pasta sauce, but in a time crunch I'll grab a jar of Rao's. This Central Market brand was on sale a couple of weeks ago so I took a chance. Honestly, it's as good as Rao's at half the price, and has a similarly basic ingredient list. I threw in a pound of HEB's Italian sausage from the meat counter and had poor man's bolognese in less than an hour.

October 7Oct 7 Whoever is running Creamy Creations is on a run, its a Tiger in his prime kinda run. You take the field, I'll take CC. Picked up Gingerbread dough, can report caramel apple is legit, pumpkin pie is legit, the oatmeal one needs more oatmeal cookie, still good. They have eggnog and another called candy cane. I dont see it slowing down

October 12Oct 12 Snagged a case of these just now. The strawberry was money, so I have high hopes for this one.

November 9Nov 9 I tried the Mi Tienda you-bake blue corn tortillas again. They still suck. They're super fragile and have a weird texture when cooked. Any (Austin) options for blue (or red) corn tortillas? Not tostadas. I have a couple of mercados to check nearby, but I'm not sure they'd stock such a thing.
November 9Nov 9 How are they different than the regular “you bake” corn tortillas? Because those seem to turn out fine?Or…just get fresh corn tortillas from most any Mercado?

I want red or blue for a very odd reason: my wife has to eat an extremely restricted carb diet, so when I make "enchiladas" I use the very low carb flour tortillas for her. I understand, it's not authentic at all. The problem is that if I use yellow corn for me once everything is all sauced up it's hard to see which is which. Blue or red corn tortillas are pretty obvious. There are other solutions, sure -- two different pans, etc. I'm just trying to simplify. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
November 9Nov 9 Two different pans seems a lot easier than driving around town looking for red tortillas.

November 9Nov 9 This is starting to sound like the insistence that I change my San Francisco vacation to San Diego. Is it really that absurd to ask where I can find blue corn tortillas in Austin? surly gonna surly

November 10Nov 10 I vaguely remember Fiesta selling red corn tortillas in their bakery a few years ago. I haven’t been back since then.
November 10Nov 10 Well, the first two lines of my post were "I tried the Mi Tienda you-bake blue corn tortillas again. They still suck."
