Chorizo Recipe

5lbs pork shoulder, cubed

3 tablespoons salt (1.7%)

2 tablespoons ancho chili powder (1.1%)

1 tablespoon hot paprika (.5%)

1 tablespoon chipotle powder (.5%)

1 tablespoon granulated garlic (.5%)

Fundido recipe

Portion out a quarter pound of cooked chorizo into an oven-safe dish. Add 6 ounces of Oaxaca cheese and melt in the oven at 300º for 10-15 minutes. Garnish with diced scallion and jalapeño.

Flan Recipe

1.5 cups sugar

2 cups whole milk

4 large eggs

2 tablespoons vanilla extract

Add 1 cup of the sugar to a sauce pan and heat over medium-high heat until the sugar has liquefied. Quickly spoon the liquid into the forms you’ll be using for the flan.

Rest the form you are using for the flan in a larger vessel and fill 1-2 inches with hot water.

Beat together the eggs, remaining sugar, milk, and vanilla and ladle into the sugared forms.

Cover with foil and bake for 40-60 minutes, depending on the size. Check the flan after 40 minutes to check to see if the flan has fully set and then gauge the time from there.
