Pati Jinich - How to Make Cali-Baja Fish Tacos

[@annhutcheson5770]

Those tacos alone are worth a trip south. So incredible. First one I had was in San Diego - the next one was in Ensenada. Truly one memorable bite. 🌮🐟🌮

[@amyodonnell844]

One of my friends--an LA lady of Mexican descent herself--introduced me to this Salsa Macha. OMG. Just made some last night and writing a blog post on it. On her advice, I used a whole cup of raw peanuts. Thank you--I have become enlightened. ;)

[@patijinich]

Sounds great!

Growing up in San Diego, as a kid in the early 60's, we used to go to Ensenada and Rosorita Beach. This is where I first had amazing fish tacos. That salsa looks amazing. Thank you for sharing the traditional recipes. I don't eat pork anymore so I use homemade beef tallow in my tortillas.

[@patijinich]

My pleasure!

[@aracelirodriguez8774]

Home made flower tortillas!!! Que rico. 😋

[@mvoronenko]

Wow, when a Mexican friend told me that Baja fish tacos were battered and yet amazing I did not believe her. Having watched this incredible recipe, now I do. Thank you very much!

[@patijinich]

Thanks for watching Misha!

[@emmalopez3744]

OMG, these look amazing! Not everyone knows how to make a fish taco.....these look heavenly. Can't wait to try them!

[@richardmeyer4859]

Patti, you did justice to those Baja Fish Tacos! I had that very salsa in Yucatán last month & it was divine! You are a true master chef! You do it the right way--with lard in your tortillas. Sometimes I use bacon fat which gives the tortillas a smokey flavor. ¡Gracias...Provecho...Bendiciones y Besitos! Liz in N.C.

[@patijinich]

Que amable Liz, un abrazo!

🏄🏽Shout out to all the Baja Surfers who grew up eating this on the beach in Ensenada. 🙏

[@quarantinaakalillian7359]

👍 I had some from a food truck just outside of a bar in Ensenada and they were amazing. I surfed Onofre too, but there were no decent fish tacos there. Now the only surfing I do, here in Minnesota, involves a TV remote. 😒

[@SanAntonioRosie]

You are a superhero in our home! Gracias!!!

[@Red-ob1pr]

Yommy! That’s exactly how my mom used to make tortillas! ♥️💐

[@a.duarte8879]

While visiting Ensenada as a young girl, my fondest memory was their fish tacos. So delicious. We recently visited L.A. and enjoyed fabulous fish tacos their too. I wanted to try and make them myself and I found your recipe. I tried the recipe for my family and it was a hit. The fish was so crunch and tasty. Thank you for sharing a great recipe.

[@patijinich]

Thanks to you for giving this recipe a chance, hugs to the whole family!

[@agut5587]

Me hace recordar las tortillas recién hechas de mi mamá( eramos los únicos niños que hablamos español en casa) los más o menos mejicanos vecinitos olean las tortillas y venían corriendo para pedir una con mantequilla. Las hecho de menos a ella y sus tortillas.

[@Van9fromOuterSpace]

Pati, you are a woman after my own heart!

[@captainjustin]

I've always been so intimidated to try fish tacos at home but you make it look so approachable, Pati! Can't wait to try soon. And wow, that salsa macha!

[@patijinich]

Hope you enjoy!

[@amandaalcaraz7641]

Love Fish Tacos ... Looks delicious. It’s interesting that you mentioned the rules of flour vs corn tortillas. I have never eaten a Fish Taco on a flour tortilla. Like I said “Looks Delicious” Must try the fresh flour tortilla. Thank You for ALL your WONDERFUL VIDEOS... HaPpY Cooking Everyone . 🌮🥙🌮🥙🍴🥃 and the Tequila .... yum.... BTW .... I grew up in Los Angeles and my Aunt and Uncle owned a Mexican Restaurant... go figure we are not MEXICAN 🤔🤣🤔🤣 but I make it all the time 😋😋😋

[@maryt1604]

Pati, thanks for the recipe. can you put these in the tortilla press?

[@angelrodriguezfigueroa7651]

Looks amazingly beautiful and probably the best tasting, too bad I would never know what that is like because ever prior to life saving surgery I couldn’t eat anything breaded. Enjoy though

[@jesusisking1095]

I love your recipes! I'm Mexican American and know the basic recipes but there are things my mother didn't teach me but I disagree with eating tacos with only corn tortillas my parents are from the north of Mexico basically the border and we ate everything with flour tortillas including tacos and still do but I love corn tortillas also although my family does not they act like corn tortillas are forbidden for northern Mexicans lol

[@patijinich]

Absolutely! Flour tortillas are great and delicious, I just do not recommend them for making tacos dorados or enchiladas ;)

[@aracelim1532]

Fantastic video.

[@susenjarvis8281]

Looks yummy,

[@R8RsYF]

The fish prep starts at 6:28 and it's super easy. It looks great, I think she has something special here.

[@michaelwilmoth1018]

yummy.looks so good.😍🙌❤

[@phil4208]

Amazing and much much better than the McDonald's filet whatever that is

[@rociogutierrez2308]

Que ricos! 😋 pero tengo una pregunta, a mi no me gusta la cerveza 😬 porque la puedo sustituir 🧐 y gracias por la receta 🙂

[@preembargo]

This is what's for dinner tonight.

[@steviethealtmer4489]

Hungry brought me here. Very cool!

[@rabbitboy1828]

Hey pati please show us how to make corn tortillas

[@residentevil1223]

I only like flour tortillas in a quesadilla. Is is sacreligious to have fish tacos with corn tortillas¿? I used to live in Michoacán, and corn tortilla was king.

[@patijinich]

Not at all, you can always pick your favorite!

[@residentevil1223]

@@patijinich thank you, Pati. My family is Native American from Arizona, and I love sharing and cooking your recipes for them. They remind me of my time on central Mexico.

[@j.h.warrior5445]

Corn flour tortilla.Ensenada,Rosarito and Mexicali.

[@amandaalcaraz7641]

Also in Sonora Nogales!!!!!!! Very delicious and beautiful tortillas!!!!!!!

[@nyc0053]

I agree, I agree, I ate three. Except, I will use cashews instead of peanuts.

[@setmefreespirit]

you don't use baking powder? my mexican mother in law in Texas used baking powder.

[@patijinich]

No baking powder in this one ;)

[@alexandradicarlo1406]

Hi it’s Danny from Toronto I used Ancho chiles chipotle chiles and Padilla chiles for the salsa for the fish tortillas that’s all I could find at the store is this Ok

[@patijinich]

Sounds yummy!

[@dianameza5910]

[@amandaalcaraz7641]

[@bigman860]

[@popeyinsky]

and fish tacos, they sh 'ould never be eaten with flour tortillas, im from sonora and we dont use flour tortillas for either fish ir shrimp tacos

[@popeyinsky]

Flour tortillas aren’t meant for fish tacos, at least not in the traditional world

[@IrisMG]

Better than Del Taco fish tacos!

[@fv1291]

Burrito, not tacos. Tacos use corn tortillas!

[@bigdaddynasty69]

[@dianasexylatindread4803]

I won't be buying tortillas now.. I can't wait to make some
