[@yippeehaha24-y1y]

Always love Rick's videos...but the lighting??

[@rikkimontero]

Greetings from Seattle! Love your teaching style and recipes Chef Rick

[@RamenNoodle1985]

So in love with the nail polish color!

[@katarifalls7794]

my mom puts salt in the masa, so maybe in Jalisco it's more common to put salt in it. Hard to say since my mom kind of just made up everything since her mom didn't teach her.

As always the nails are great but the gloves👍🏽

How cool, Rick! My 5 yr old was just asking me about empanadas this morning! One of his favorite books was talking about them 😋

[@jesusevilla]

Those are what people from CDMX call quesadillas it's kinda big debate between people from CDMX and the rest of the country cause everyone but CDMX agrees that quesadillas need to have cheese.

I can't wait to try this recipe. And Rick, I absolutely LOVE your shirt!

[@jenniferbostic7918]

You can used dried or canned Pozole to make your own "fresh" masa. Way better and fresher tasting than using dried Masa Harina.

Empanadas 101 ❤. Muchas Gracias Prof./Chef Rick ☺️

[@andrewkavros6501]

I LOVE that you're using masienda masa harina! Can't wait to make this recipe - my wife and I can't get enough of your channel and cookbook!

[@notactuallymyrealname]

I have been so excited to see Rick's bright and colorful new kitchen but this looks like there was a Gingham filter popped on this! What happened?

[@karenbrown1457]

Love, love, love this! ¡Gracias! Was one of the masas you were using a red corn masa? And how do you recommend buying in the states? Dry or wet from a shop? Thanks again. (I’m familiar with blue corn and use it often but haven’t seen a red one.)

[@MichaelAlthauser]

Really great video!

[@patrickjcreates]

[@amandawhite3851]

Cannot wait to make these!!!

[@andiiegoro16]

My grandma just passed away this January and she used to make empanadas like this, filled with flor de calabaza, rajas y queso. I'm gonna miss those empanadas and so much more. I'll try this recipe to remind me of that ❤

[@abbydelriesgo]

The pan to the editor with the book on Masa… perfect comedic timing reminds me of the BA days ❤️

[@kathryndemarco1629]

The Spanish Inquisition of fillings.

[@maqsoodkhan5733]

Nice Rick 👍look amazing food 🤤

[@paulwagner688]

What brand of salt do you use, and how do the measurements compare to Morton or Diamond Crystal?

[@silverdawn813]

is it possible to keep these in the freezer before frying?

[@shadodragonette]

I had a few Mexican coworkers tell me to use "Masa" brand flour? Mix? to make tamales. It was the ONE brand with MA on one line and SA on the next. I have never been disappointed, it turned out almost exactly like theirs, only I added more spice to the meat. One had a daughter that taught me about Valentina's hot sauce, because she dipped Doritos in it. Valentina's became my favorite hot sauce after that, and ever since. It's on my short list of hot sauce, ahead of Tabasco. I do know that one brand of Masa flour/mix is corn that has been treated and needs fat and liquid to be added to make it properly. I am very careful to use what they taught me, except I add more spice because I like spice.

[@Bluemist77]

What’s the brand of masa you used?

[@usmanabid9573]

Nice

[@theresadutcher4750]

I love you. And your food. No, honestly. Makes a real difference for me every week when I make something from your book

[@valpaca2547]

Rajas con crema is my absolute fave. I'm excited to try this

[@TheChelseaTML]

👍 great work Rick! I like the little quiz you did too 😊

[@virginiaf.5764]

I add salt, too (and sometimes chili powder) to my masa mix

[@j.r.mccalla8662]

Yum!!!
