The Cozy Corner

Oh oh oh - Y'ALL!!!

It's Tuesday! The family requested tacos so that's what I'm making
🌮🌮🌮
Anyone else celebrating taco Tuesday??
Soft or hard shell and corn or flour? I prefer medium corn. As a kid - we had tacos every Friday night for dinner. My mom fried the corn tortillas - and we’d get one that was softer with some butter and salt. So delicious. Plus we always had hand grated Colby cheese - no convenience bag cheese then.

I love corn for tacos but if I am doing burritos I prefer flour.....yes, I'm complicated! 🙄

Tonight I'm doing fried flour tortillas - I apparently really love them today!

Fun fact - I haven't bought a bag of shredded cheese in over 10 years
I grate monterey jack and medium cheddar each week with my rotary grater... best investment - EVER!
 
Hand grated cheese is far superior. Do you have a deep fryer or shallow fry the flour tortillas?

@MidwestPrincess23 buttermilk has been added to my grocery list. I can make… but I only drink skim and want the full effect of full fat buttermilk.
YES!!!!
I will say - I started making my own butter... and the buttermilk that's leftover is THE BEST buttermilk I've ever used.
just another random fun fact

BUT... I don't make enough butter to yield all the buttermilk I need for all my baking so I always have a canister of this in my fridge too - it mixes with water so you don't need to buy special milk and it lasts soooo long!

Um, this is great! 😍

I always buy it and it goes bad before I use it again. Thanks!

I started making chocolate chip cookies with buttermilk and *chefs kiss*
