How to Make New Mexican Gorditas and Biscochitos

[@ruthm8931]

I am loving these segments where Bryan comes back from travels with a new recipe! He makes everything look fantastic!

[@RodericSpode]

Yep, a lot of great recipes. Those gorditas look great, and not too hard to make.

[@laiuppa]

I own both the top tortilla press models, agree with the ranking. Owned the Victoria first, the Masienda press is much nicer. Also, “making tortillas is easy” is a true, but making tortillas that puff….that’s where the magic is. Check out the great videos on making them puff from Masienda

[@hortenciawall-salas9831]

The only that was left out of the gorditas, was sour cream! And for my taste a green homedae salsa. Yummy

[@joycej9415]

The restaurant has red or green on the menu, this was his version based on the real deal.

[@rizzbod]

Such a lovely Channel, i am able to learn so many dishes , and really relax while watching the cooking ♥️

[@fcsolis]

Yum. Great meal to have any time of the day. I'll give that recipe a try. Thank you.

[@millienorton5009]

My mom use to.make these gorditas for us back in the sixties, when she ran out of meat she would stuff them with cheese, seal them and fry them. They were my favorite I make them for my family now,but I don't fry them, I cook them on the Comal or griddle, they're just as delicious 😋

[@bernadetteaustin1496]

And they're healthier.

[@robertpshaw]

First time I have seen this, very accessible, great production value (video/audio/continuity), without excessive detail.

[@SKG-d2t]

My tortilla press is not a one trick pony - I use it to make uniform tart/tassie pastry rounds, Moravian thin spice cookies, wrappers for dim sum and more!

[@phil4208]

Wow , amazing food that really anyone can make I live in rome new york where biscotti rules, those cookies biscochito,s are definitely worth a taste , they would go perfect with coffee

[@raylenegilmore4832]

Thank you for this recipe. It looks so yummy😋 I'm planning on trying this one😋

[@saritabrigittejuarez8065]

I grew up seeing my mother making these gorditas at least twice a month. Delicious.

[@ks7343]

Yumm! Breakfast gorditas! Hope to try!

[@bernadetteaustin1496]

I love, love, America's Test Kitchen!

[@saritabrigittejuarez8065]

They looked delicious.!!❤❤

[@v2gbob]

Nice job on the gorditas, but really, that meat should also have a bunch of roasted Hatch green chiles and Mexican oregano in it. Some hot New Mexican chile powder would be nice as well.

[@alvaradoramos2838]

If it crack the masa need more water

[@laiuppa]

Totally agree, the dough should be like new play dough, moist but not sticking to you hands. Mixing well is important, and it’s suggested you let the dough rest for at least 20 mins after mixing from masa harina, helps let it hydrate. If it dries out, add more water. You can’t overwork masa dough (no gluten)

[@samuelmuldoon4839]

Squish the tortilla dough in your hand before cooking or try to make a ball out of it. When it is dry, it does not stick to itself and falls apart. Also, it must be noxtamalized. Home-ground raw uncooked crude corn falls apart no matter how much water is used.

[@gailaltschwager7377]

Thank you!

[@sharilynn3024]

Only thing missing from either the dough or the pico is green chile!!!

[@Nyorostx]

Las Cruces representing. I live 5 min from Seanz Gorditas. Very good place :)

[@joycej9415]

I am in Alamogordo and gotta try it the next time I get over there!

[@brendasaupe8048]

more 505 Recipes. Perhaps Stuffed sopapillas or maybe 505 enchiladas. Thank you for showing what makes New Mexico so great. BY THE WAY if you crumble up the Bicochitos and put them in a milkshake it makes for the perfect dessert

[@nhungcrosbie8750]

They are looking great!

[@saritabrigittejuarez8065]

N p os biscochitos were a specialty done by my grand ma. I had them with orange juice. They taste great.

[@wastrelway3226]

The gorditas look great. I don't care much for deep-frying, so I'll have to see if there's a way to bake them like cornbread. I know they won't be the same... No, you do not need a tortilla press. You can roll them out or pat them out by flipping the dough between your hands, as is traditional. And then there is the use of plastic...

[@lynnstlaurent6789]

I was wondering about shallow frying.

[@wastrelway3226]

@@lynnstlaurent6789 I don't know. I think that might work, but it would be tricky to get the crispy outside and soft inside. I'd do them one at a time in a wok, maybe. You need a lot of heat and you'd have to flip them several times and make sure they don't burn. Deep-frying is easy, but I'm with Satchel Paige who supposedly said, "Avoid fried food, it angers the blood."

[@millienorton5009]

Put them on the griddle, just spray the griddle with a little oil, they taste just as good.

[@moniflores3020]

For the gorditas, is the masa harina instant or regular?

[@VincentMurphy000]

No Green Chile?

[@charlesmangum2100]

Size your dough ball according to the size of the tortilla press.

[@steveskouson9620]

I noticed that as well. Also, that white one was NOT made out of powdered steel. It has powder-coat paint on it. Be careful, once you scratch the powder-coat, it will rust! Anyone else notice the warped bottom plate? steve

[@janedunn6567]

Years ago they sold a milk cracker that was so. Delicious ii cant remember the cracker name but the.y came in a purple wrapped box year 1960 perhaps you could research and make them. Thank you!!

[@Rebecca-dm5ul]

Is this a mix of other videos? I remember all but the cookie recipe.

[@donnacreamer4123]

Yummy❣️

[@schmup53]

Rum? Sherry? Bourbon? Traditional Biscochitos usually have liquor! Also we cut them out with cookie cutters but I like this log rolling technique a lot.

[@JoeStuffzAlt]

I wonder about using wet erase markers on glass nowadays. In theory, it may come off in the dishwasher, and they are pretty clear on glass. You can measure out the 4" on the pie plate. I think they are called Vis a Vis

[@b_uppy]

Gorditas and tamales are the best.

Omg thanks so much. I was like that cake looks good. I gotta try to fine that episode.. Good looking out !

[@kathleenray1827]

When they crack on the sides…. Needs better hydration of maseca…. Not necessarily more water… sometimes the dough just needs to rest longer.

[@SamSolasdonSaol]

Those Gorditas are on the Menu for us this week. Thanks! Drool. 🤤

[@shelly7017]

I prefer cornbread made with Masa harina vs cornmeal, it's inparts a stronger corn flavor.

[@victoriavassen2627]

This reminds me a little of our curry- bunnies (fat-cake) and savoury mince🇿🇦

[@yolandamarshall872]

Thanks for sharing these two recipes. I grew up eating these, but never got the recipes.

[@Jay-xz6rw]

Wow, never had or heard of a gordita (outside of nasty taco bell) that looks that delicious. I will be trying this simple recipe soon. Thanks for sharing!!

I respect very much the burns and scars on Julia's hands they stir memories of my own mother's hands, and now my own.

[@samuelmuldoon4839]

I have a bad memory and can only remember one recipe at a time. I wish the galletas or biscochitos were a separate video from the gorditas.

[@RobertPeters4674]

Yum, those don't look like the Taco Bell Gorditas. They look better.😋

[@quiteriaalvespaz]

[@desireeuvalle9753]

If you add a homemade salsa verde instead of bottled it’s a whole other level of delicious

[@michelleboldan5]

I don’t think old time New Mexicans had a scale or measured them ?

[@WarehouseAccount-d8h]

New Mexican Gorditas are served with either green or red chile sauce or salsa..... never vineger-loaded hot sauce.

What? No brandy in these biscochitos?

[@schmup53]

or rum or sherry, or orange juice or milk, SOMETHING!

[@carolgiffen8203]

The tortilla press test was dumb. The little one might be harder to use, but only by a tiny fraction which is probably compensated for by not having to find storage space and being able to grab out of the cupboard with one hand. Nothing makes sense about putting a large dough ball in a small press. The cookies, however….I am going to do them. Wondering what brand of lard you used

[@virginiaf.5764]

It was dumb. I have a wooden press, handmade using specs from a mexican cookbook. I've used it for years and it works great $95 for a press ... no thanks.

[@alvaradoramos2838]

Pork carnitas gorditas

[@articulosuniversales]

[@virginiaf.5764]

Typically if they crack on the sides you’re pressing too fast.

Born and raised native New Mexican here and I was not impressed with this representation. Those gorditas are *not* NM cuisine - the restaurant that was referenced is self-advertised as a Mexican restaurant, and if it has to be explained to this channel what the difference is between Mexican and New Mexican cuisine, then they have no business posting this video in the first place. 🙄 Major fail.

[@valeriezarate1715]

I totally agree with you!

[@irmatalez9748]

Too much! I'm 110% mexican and gorditas dont be taking tht long. 1st of all big zip bag for tht much Spice 😮. Plus they don't look like pic and stuffed

[@kidjeff4304]

Using the glass to press can create a serious gash if the pie plate breaks.

[@NatashaEB93]

1st off Gorditas are mexicand if you want to make them “New Mexican” they need red ir green chile. 2nd…. Thats not how you make biscochitos!!! 😮

[@tinafrus7249]

I thought picadillo had green olives and raisins in it.

Not a single Mexican chef lol

they make cultural foods all the time without people from that culture in the kitchen lol. come on now.

... Is Brian of latin decent If so please disregard the following ? What would be a more ethical is to feature a latino chef in this video to present their cultural food don't ya think ? Not everything needs to be white washed.

[@Kellegram]

That doesn't make any sense.

[@arnoldrivera985]

If the masa cracks it's lacking moisture also typically no cheese mixed with the masa especially jack cheese no such thing in mexico

[@ReindeerD]

I prefer the Gordi Bueans but whatever.

[@RawHeat100]

the masa was missing lard and baking soda
