Hard and soft tacos? How accommodating.

[-] gentooer@programming.dev 10 points 6 months ago

Are hard tacos actually nice to eat? Whenever I see them in movies and such, it seems like the tortilla would just shatter the moment you bite into it.

It's like a tortilla made of a giant cornchip. Breakage can be an issue but they don't explode like glass or anything.

Have you ever had a tostada?

Soft tacos are easier to eat but you can't get Doritos crunchy taco shells as a soft taco

[-] Gustephan@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

I like hard shell tacos, though I will say it's often an exercise in creatively holding broken pieces of taco as I eat it. The secret is to spread a tortilla with refried beans (or any other food that can serve as glue; guac, sour cream, melted cheese, etc) then wrap that around the hardshell taco for a best of both worlds experience. It's also very much a white people taco night thing; I'd never want a hard shell for a good Mexican or texmex style taco, but if you're talking about ground beef in a Mccormick spice blend with peripherals from the "mexican" aisle of an American supermarket, hard shells are dope.

No, they’re not. Unless you like making messes. Then they’re right up your alley.

[-] mortemtyrannis@lemmy.ml 5 points 6 months ago

Why not both indeed.

Crunch wraps!

Soft taco around a hard taco.

Doesn't even have to be dinner

[-] omgarm@feddit.nl 15 points 6 months ago

Without paying much attention or zooming in I could tell this was Dutch. Then I saw the white chair, the cheese and de Ruijter.

[-] Frostbeard@lemmy.world 11 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

The white chair is TripTrap made by Stokke (At least the original design, guess it's been pirated by other makers) This could have been any Nordic country as well apart from the details ofc :) I blame IKEA for that

So the Norwegian Forest Cat is sitting on the Norwegian children chair :)

Edit. Think it might be a siberian actually...

They're Maine Coons actually! Brother and sister.

Literally just finished eating White People Tacos... so good. The cat is the only creature there with any taste.

[-] Klear@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Does the colour of the skin of the ingredients really affect the taste?

[-] door_in_the_face@feddit.de 8 points 6 months ago

White people tacos refers to a specific way of making tacos, which has little to do with any Mexican recipe. It's named that way because it's usually eaten by white people.

[-] KrankyKong@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

And it mf slaps frfr

Where is dinner at? I will be there for taco night every time.

[-] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 21 points 6 months ago

And on Taco Night no less‽

[-] neuracnu@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 6 months ago
[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

I am so gratified to learn that others use this term, too. Ain’t nothing wrong with some hamburger meat in a large tortilla chip with cheddar cheese, but it is most definitely not the same food item as you get from a taco joint. This is one of those home cooking exclusives.

[-] chalupapocalypse@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

People shit on these tacos but it's a way better use of ground beef than fucking manwich or hamburger helper or meatloaf, or anything else besides burgers.

taco cat is taco cat spelled backwards

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 15 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I know the seasoning packets say to drain the fat from the hamburger after browning, but it always leaves it so dry. I never drain the fat out or add water and I let it all marinate for at least an hour before serving. It's so, so much better.

I thought it was weird my SO grandma's cat ate at the table with us but I guess it's not unusual.

Next taco night, add a bit of water to your sour cream to make it a little bit runny. Then add a bit of salt, some lime juice and smoked paprika. Is nice.

[-] gentooer@programming.dev 3 points 6 months ago

This is why I prefer low-fat sour cream for burritos and tacos, it's a little runnier. I just throw some finely diced shallots in there and leave it for some time in the fridge.
