You are the best cooking tutor. I've seen other channels and they either talk tooooooo much about everything except what they're doing or their filming is terrible, but you are excellent......to the point, clear, simple and beautifully filmed.

[@jga996]

You are amazing. I love your cooking. My dad used to make capirotada and when he passed the tradition stopped. Thank you for sharing I am going to pick up the tradition again. I love the way you explain and show how to do it. Thank you

Sorry for your loss. Thank you so much for your kind comment. 😊

[@MegaAzulverde]

my mom makes her Capirotada with regular milk and condensed milk, piloncillo and cinammon. She also sprinkles shredded coconut and cheese on top but she uses cotija cheese. i live in San Antonio Texas and i got use to the way they make it here, they are both delicious 😊

Yes! That sounds amazing! I normally use queso fresco, but I didn't have any in the fridge...boo. 😕 Thank you for watching. 😊

[@pkxd1495]

I made your enchlad6 cassarole the other day and I must say it was absolutely the best and I'm an African American we don't typically Cook mexican but again like you I love to cook it is my passion. I hope my daughter will continue on that passion for her children.😊

[@sallyrodriguez23]

My mom made it with cheddar cheese, so GOOD!!!

[@Arcie7887]

I remember watching my mom make capirotada and she would fry the bolillo in lard, and mix in cut pieces of tortilla to add to the texture as well as add orange rounds with the peel and she would make a giant pot every time, good memories! 😋

Yum! I actually like to add apple, banana, shredded coconut, raisins, crushed pineapple and cheese. I might have to try the orange and frying the pan bolillo next time. Sounds so good. :)

[@cindystrother7710]

LOVE THAT YOU PUT YOUR YUMMY DELICIOUS RECIPES UNDERNEATH SO WE CAN HAVE THEM FOR LATER FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO CANNOT COOK THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@xkingericax3508]

Omg i remember being younger and this dish would come around like 2 times a year and i would cry tears of joy when i saw it lmfao . looks so yummy Mama , love your recipes ❤❤❤❤

[@CarolAnnNapolitano]

I never thought of using this cheese in something sweet, good idea.

[@bonitawauls6274]

Thank you for explaining the Piloncillo. I was trying to chip it to bits. ( not possible). It tastes so good!

[@deviantreads]

I've been looking for an easy recipe for this looks so good will be making this this weekend for sure.

[@eleanornajar3702]

Omg! So thrilled for this recipe! ...as a kid growing up, my mama made this every xmas. To me never appealed to me. Your variation is a lil' dif' and I love it. Looks so appealing" This is a must to make 👍Thanks lil' mama ❤

[@mzErica]

Thank you for your video on Tortillas, they come out perfect every time! ( not too round though lol)

[@ClaudinaAizpuru]

Mz Marie I want to try them

[@amandacristan226]

Omg it was the first time ever making this. And thanks to your wonderful video I made it and it came out delicious. Thank you so much a thousand times🙂

[@lisae5057]

yes childhood memories my aunt would make this and would add peanuts as well! thank you for this video! !

[@mcr987]

Love this idea! I had some mini baking pans left over from the holidays now I can use those for Easter Capirotada gifts for family! Thank you 😊

[@brendacenteno2]

Great video!! I have become obsessed with CAPIROTADA videos! 😂 The variations seem endless and personalization (depending on personal likes/diet restrictions) is great! The important thing, I think, is the balance of the sweet & savory. Never liked it as a kid because the texture is “mushy” but I made my first-ever batch this Easter and my husband and I LOVED IT! We did not crumble the bread but instead sliced, toasted & buttered…ours included 1/2 C. each of raisins, peanuts, sliced almonds, chopped pecans & shredded coconut plus a whole COTIJA cheese. And I also added whole cloves to the “tea.” The taste is well balanced without being overly sweet.

[@teresa_regalado]

These are so cute!! Especially for a small family. Im going to make these but adding extra topping😊☺️❤️

[@cindystrother7710]

LOVE THAT YOU EXPLAIN GIVE TIPS AND IDEA'S AND INFORMATION YOU ARE FABULOUS THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@belindahernandez339]

OMG, those little food trays look so cute, definitely have to buy n make some Capirutada😍thanks they look yummy

[@gabbyperez9993]

My tias would take up the whole day making this. But I'm going to try the quick way! 😀

Thank You! 😊

[@meganrunner]

I got all the ingredients for this today at my grocery store! I’m so ready to make this!

[@pinkclouds1292]

Man that looks so good. I wish I could see the recipe with the banana and peanuts tho. Was always my favorite part

[@rosiegutierrez6907]

SOOO Yummy, you make your recipes and cooking look so easy, luv the bandage ❤

[@amyalvar]

Thank you for the capirotada video. I will be making some!

[@crgaillee]

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I came across it by chance. I hadn't thought about his dish in decades. My Mother's approach was a little different but, the concept was the same. I had always liked it as a child, Thank you again, via con Dios.

[@hildahernandez8266]

I absolutely love all your recipes that I have watched! Love how you explain everything and make it seem so easy☺

[@gracecruz5171]

I make it exactly like you but I add anise seeds to the tea. That's how my aunt taught me to do it. I love capirotada. I love your videos.

[@kurtgarcia7079]

We would make ours with mexican tarragon we grew in our garden. It has a very similar anise/licorice taste that's great in the capirotada.

[@estherjurado7351]

Jesus Mary and Joseph!!! Your tips are wonderful, I added the canela y piloncillo mixture just as you instructed. I had to make it today how ever I won't bake until Good Friday couple days to take in the flavors. Thanks!

[@molliewhite-evans473]

I soaked my raisins in the sugar & cinnamon water for about 10 minutes.

[@normajeancarmona9706]

That's how my mama used to do it, but then she passed and the buck stopped there, I think I'll try it, wish me luck

[@mgrg40]

My grandmother was from Mexico and would add sliced tomatoes to the top of the capirotada. Sounds weird, but once it's cooked it actually adds a lovely flavor and texture to it. She used shredded cheddar cheese (rather than mozzarella) and pecans also. Also, she toasted her sliced bread on the comal IN LARD... your way is much more efficient and a bit healthier. :) Other than that AGAIN, it seems like we are somehow related. Great video!

Thank you! Your Grandmothers capirotada sounds fabulous!

[@sabrinaaguilera7970]

wow! looks so good. Reminds me of my grandmother. You must have really paid attention to yours or your mom and learned alot from them because all of your dishes you make are so authentic. Do you write all your recipes down or do you have it all memorized?. I love capirotara :D

Thank you! My maternal grandmother actually had a very limited repertoire in the kitchen, but my grandfather did a lot of cooking. I also learned alot from my Dad's side of the family. My Dad actually taught me to make Mexican rice. My paternal grandfather used to help my grandmother make tortillas and was really good at it. 😅 Thank you so much for watching my videos. I really do love to cook and share recipes.

[@rosiel2774]

Love watching your videos. We use pecans and sharp cheddar in cubes.

[@rosamariamendoza1466]

A very short version of what I make, but still looks delicious!!

[@cindystrother7710]

LOVE LOVE YOUR FABULOUS CHANNEL YOUR CHANNEL IS THE GREATEST OUT THERE YOU PUT LOVE IN WHAT YOU ARE DOING

[@deannastevens1217]

I might suggest to freeze the cub of butter and grate it onto the top of the baking dishes... It's easy and Even. Delicious looking Recipe.

[@xicanageekgrrrl982]

Great recipe! Easy and I love the idea of individual pans to give as gifts!! Also I think it's a regional thing...different areas based on what's available is used...my abuela and bisabuela used 2 kinds of cheese..bananas and walnuts...as much as I love it my husband has a nut allergy like ur son so I make it without as well!! Thank you for ur awesome video!! It brings back memories and the nostalgia of the wonderful smell!! 💜💜

[@hopelovefaith1321]

HI Mexi Mama....gee this is so different to our traditional bread pudding here in Australia....of course some ingredients are the same ..bread ( of course...but ours is just to be stale) , sugar, raisins..other things we use are milk, eggs, cream, vanilla...some people spread the bread with jam n butter before layering. Thanks for showing us the traditional Mexican way...it was interesting seeing such a different way of baking a bread pudding. Ps. Your paper bakeware are just so cute...I’ve never seen anything like them before...such a great gift idea...I bet your family members devoured them!? Well done 👍🏻

[@applejacks9549]

So excited to make this 😊👍🏽

[@patriciacruz1293]

My younger brother & I are the last two who eat this during Lent. I love the small paper pans you used and the smaller recipe. Will be using your recipe this year. Thank you so much!

[@normajeancarmona9706]

And how DOES that taste

[@nellieb1000]

thank you so much I love it simple will be making it soon your recipes rock

Thank you! 😉💖

[@RoMaMa923]

I think I'll make this during Lenten. I'm not a fan of cheese. I usually like it the way you described it with the other ingredients. I know when I was younger, they did add these big round colorful candies. Now I guess they sprinkle them tiny candies that is used on birthday cakes. Love your channel and cooking.

[@jer0108]

Wow it's looks very delicious I am going to try it 👍

[@AnnaAliciaTx]

My Mommie makes Capirotada every year for Christmas. I love the stuff. Not many families (that I know of) even know what it is. My Mom makes hers with either walnuts or pecans and apples. Mmmmmm! served nice and warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Yum! Yum! =p

[@napoleonsdauphin]

My grandmother made hers in a massive roasting pan, like you would use for a turkey. She always used peanuts and jack cheese and sliced whole grain bread which she had toasted in big batches. One of my absolute favorite things growing up. I like that you kept yours simple!

I miss having peanuts...😕. My son is allergic to them. I remember our neighbor would put coconut, candy coated peanuts, raisins, apples, cheese and even bananas. It was really good. 👍

[@hopelovefaith1321]

Gochujang Mamá sorry to here about your sons allergy...it makes things very hard. My son has a gluten allergy which makes baking a challenge 🙁 but at least it’s not as severe as anaphylactic 😣...do you have epi-pens at the ready? It must be a scary thing? Thanks G-mama 🙂👍🏻

[@MariaLuna-nj2gc]

Thanks , that's a great idea!!! Looks delicious. ❤

[@shirleyherrera3358]

Nice! Cheddar and apples go well together. 😊

[@354133]

Thanks, you are wonderful. I have a question Your English is perfect as well as your Spanish, Being from California these are both languages I am very familiar with. But your name is Kimchi Mama which I find very interesting. I moved to Asia years ago and the only thing I miss from back home is Mexican food. I may end up collecting all of your recipes because most of the time everyone else's recipes are almost impossible to get ingredients for in Aisa. You have made all of it possible for me to do.Benefaciat vobis Deus et custodiat te.

Thank you so much for your comment. Blessings to you! 💖 The name Gochujang Mama is a nickname my husband gave me. He's Korean and I'm Mexican. 😁

[@esmeraldacano2292]

Thank you ! looks very easy to make I'm going to try this my son was asking me if I could make Bread pudding .God Bless. I remember my mom making this but she would add different kinds of cheese. If I were to use bread slices how many would I use ?what other cheese would go with that ?

I wish I had paid more attention in the kitchen with my grandma my mom's side of family is Mexican and I was raised by them. Grams would cook all day every day, one thing I miss was her biscochitos do u have a recipe for that?

I do not, but I have tried them and they are so good! 😊

[@MrKabloona]

If you want the recipe, let me know. I have my moms recipe from the early 60's. (Regular and orange). Perhaps you could do a video on whipping up a batch.

[@jeanettemoreno6883]

I made your Capirotada recipe yesterday

[@jeanettemoreno6883]

I wish I could post a picture of my end product

[@bonitawauls6274]

I just watched your video that you tell us you are sick with walking pneumonia. Comments were disabled so I came here to say I sincerely hope you feel better fast! I have had pneumonia and coughed so hard I got an umbilical hernia! No fun. If I were your neighbor I would babysit your children so you can rest and recover. Don't worry about the trolls! They will disappear. Too many of us love you just as you are! God loves us just as we are, too. God bless you. Recover! Feel better! Love surrounds you!

[@CarolinaMartinez-hc1if]

Gahhhhh!!! I can’t believe you have this!!!!! Another ingredient I’ve had it with was tortilla. Make them into tostadas en el comal first

[@normajeancarmona9706]

And how does THAT taste, let me know, thank you

[@kelleyjerred8032]

I can't even imagine what it would taste like with cheese ;)

I'm going to try Russian stringy cheese they sell in my area mmm

[@salzamora3378]

or do I remember that my grandma's of force me to eat that I never did care for it but I might like it now that I'm older Maybe thank you for sharing the video.

[@jamesgrosch8621]

I'll bet it would be good with apple juice instead of the water.

[@patriciacruz1293]

The "water" used is a "tea" made of a piloncillo cone (brown sugar, almonds, vanilla, clives, nutmeg, ginger) and cinnamon. It is watered down because this is a Lenten meal. A time for fasting. 😊 But, by all means, make it your own. You have to eat it. 😂 There are MANY variations of this recipe. The one I make is an old Spanish recipe. Each ingredient represents a time in Christ's life. This is the most simple recipe I have found. It is also the one I will be using this year. 😊 Good luck. I'm sure the apple juice will be great in it.

[@BMCG98]

I make mine with equal parts apple juice to water ratio

[@normajeancarmona9706]

That was so plain, my mama used bananas apples and raisins, but the piloncillo is a must ,you cannot substitute with anything else
