Spice Shop I: Chorizo Tacos
Jan. 8th, 2010 10:19 pmI'm planning to do something tasty with my collection of Savory Spice Shop blends and ingredients once a week this year.
This week I made Potato-Chorizo Tacos with Avocado-Tomatillo Salsa, and made the chorizo from the last of my chorizo spice blend and a pound of ground pork. I made a double batch of the salsa, since I bought roughly twice as much ingredients as I needed. That's what comes of deciding on dinner while I'm at the grocery store, without my recipes. I didn't remember to get any jalapeno peppers, so I threw in a little bit of the Honey-Jalapeno Hot Sauce from the Ballard Farmer's Market. The salsa turned out very mild and creamy, while the chorizo had a reasonable kick. It happily fed everyone; I mixed a separate batch with fake beef for the vegetarian.
