*looks at websites* Literally no one knows how to make breakfast burritos properly.
@indi Okay now I'm curious what you consider the ideal of a breakfast burrito.
@indi I know my answer but it's probably a bad one :p
@starkatt I want to hear yours now. ^.^
@indi Okay so I'm gonna preface this by saying that chorizo is absolutely *correct* but outside of my dietary constraints.
Egg, cheese, green chile, hashbrowns. Salt. Small and tightly wrapped enough so that you can eat it one-handed.
@starkatt Yeah that sounds about right! I just think the 'cook in one skillet' aspect is really important. ;)
And like, I'm not surprised places here don't always have green chile in it but lots of them omit the potatoes and I'm like ????
@indi Honestly I think I've kinda imprinted on the Frontier breakfast burrito from back in Albuquerque.
When I'm camping or whatever I'll often omit the potatoes and just use salsa from a jar and still call it a breakfast burrito, but if someone sold me that I'd be pretty unhappy.
@starkatt Yeah I think mine is basically derived from the Frontier and the NMT cafeteria. :)
@indi Y'know what I'm sad I can't get up here? Chile relleno.
@starkatt I mean you can, if you enjoy a poblano caked in breading. /s
@indi I've tried ordering it a couple times here, and yeah it's a one-way ticket to sadness.
@starkatt It is, in fairness, hard to make properly. I haven't met someone who's successfully home-cooked it. Our last attempt resulted in some pretty good green chile fritters, but. ;)
@indi (I also added a bit of cayenne, red chile powder, and paprika to plus it up a bit)
@starkatt Do it do it do it! Dooooo it.
I actually make weird posole, that results from trying to make it interesting while still being vegan. Basically just the hominy, simmered with a spice blend that's mainly epazote, cumin, and cinnamon.
@indi well I guess I gotta go shopping today then :)
@indi Hm, 'cept it would use all of our remaining supply of green chile. Now I gotta think about it...
@starkatt An understandable concern!
@indi I'm not actually a big fan of posole!
But yeah, I'm down.
I was just about to ask you to convince me to make another batch of green chile mac and cheese for bandaza. Not a lot of heat with this batch of chile, but the flavor is there.
