A Sweet and Savory Arepa Swap with César and Stephanie | Recipe Drop | Food52

[@tsunamihilmy]

in Belize we have fry jacks (all-purpose flour) which puff up similar to Mexican sopapillas, but the dish we make using achiote (or recado, which is achiote and other spices) are salbutes, small corn tortillas (using masa and water) formed into a bowl shape and then deep fried to be filled with your choice of ingredients (I prefer refried beans with fresh avocado and a habanero salsa) - 'salbute' comes from the Yucatec Maya 'sáal' meaning 'light' and 'buut' meaning 'stuffed'

I learned a lot today. This was interesting.

My grandpa used achiote oil in a faux paella, it was his best dish. He thought me how to use it in his Mexican rice.

Is there a reason why Cesar's recent video thumbnails feature only photos of the dish, and not photos of him like they typically do? Like other recent videos and most of your past videos do? Don't be weird, Food52.

Ik vind het leuk om hier naar te kijken, nadeel is dat er altijd zoveel word bla bla bla bla bla bla 🙄 laatste 5 min zijn het leuks, interessant recept, lijkt me erg lekker. Door dat nutteloos gepraat word de video minder interessant. Ik zou zeggen, wat minder zinloos gepraat en dan maar wat sneller koken/bakken, hou de kijker geïnteresseerd 😉

Having a conversation about our cultures and culinary traditions isn’t “blah blah blah.” If your attention span is that short, I invite you to look up written recipes and short form social videos.
