Agree with you both and I've made it several times at home. I just can't seem to dial in the smoothness. Or the color. Think I need to buy a new blender. I bet my Ninja would knock it out of the park, but then that thing would forever be limited to salsas and savory stuff. 8 hours ago, mchookem said: a pretty good version a better version of you have an HEB, which i don't but i brought several home lol I like those as well. Pretty sure I have both of them in my fridge right now. Give me the Taco Deli one for store bought though.

This has been in my fridge at my airbnb in Queretaro, Mexico this week. Been lovin it. I think there are 4 HEB's in this town. We checked one out yesterday. Was very nice. But for some reason they didn't do the hot, fresh HEB tortillas. Instead they had a popcorn section where a lady was popping it fresh and bagging it up.
February 8Feb 8 But for some reason they didn't do the hot, fresh HEB tortillas.That’s because those are terrible compared to what the average Mexican makes at home. Only white people think those HEB tortillas are great.

White people aren’t the reason HEB sells so many of those in Texas. I do think here in Mexico corn tortillas are more of a thing.

Flour tortillas are a relatively newbie, originating in Northern Mexico in the 16th century when wheat was introduced by the Spanish. Corn tortillas have been around since 10,000 BC. They each have their uses.

February 9Feb 9 Anyone gotten the boudin stuffed jalapeno poppers? I once bought the sausage stuffed ones by mistake and will not be buying those again. I feel like the boudin ones could use a little cheese so I’m thinking about shoving a piece of cheddar in each. If you’ve gotten them before and don’t think it’s needs it let me know.
February 9Feb 9 I shoved some cheddar in your mom's... um... I boudained your... wait... I cheddar stuffed your mom's sausage... wait, no. Bear with me.

February 9Feb 9 So yes cheese or no cheese? I don’t doubt they’ll be better than the sausage stuffed ones but my Cajun wife is a little skeptical. The brisket ones kick all kinds of ass though. They didn’t have them at my heb today Edited February 9Feb 9 by Etexhorn13

Why not just experiment. Do some with some without. Maybe try different cheeses. Maybe Bed Bath and Beyond- I don't know - I'm not sure you'll have time.

February 9Feb 9 Appreciate the responses. I’m usually fine to just let HEB cook but the last non cheese stuffed japs I got left a bad taste in my mouth

February 9Feb 9 On 1/23/2025 at 11:34 PM, Mack Tripper said: Taqueria Arandas and a thousand taco trucks in Houston were doing jalapeno emulsion sauce for decades before Taco Deli. That being said, their version is pretty decent. That also being said, a manager recently told me the company that makes the retail version doesn't exactly follow their recipes all the time so it is hit or miss and sometimes not available. If you really want it, you're better off buying it from Taco Deli if you there is one near you. We got a batch of TD Doña this week and it was oily and a dark green color. Trashed it immediately.
