I’m someone who grew up near the Canadian border in the northeast and I now live in the southwest. This speaks to me… I have got used to authentic Mexican food now but for the first couple years everything hurt to eat. It was just so good that you push through to keep eating it!
Fair play! I don’t like the bitter peppers like Serranos… any advice? I don’t mind more heat if it tastes good but I can’t help but wonder if I’m doing something wrong.
And balut… yeah I’m good on that, thanks.
