Conchas (Mexican Sweet Bread) is also known as Pan Dulce translates to “Sweet Bread” in English and is not indigenous food in Mexico. Conchas are seashells and are the most iconic of Mexican pan dulce, consisting of domes covered in a puzzle of crystallized sugar squares (lamag.com). In Mexico from my personal experiences every time we had Conchas we had to have hot chocolate with them. It’s like making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich you must have both the peanut butter and jelly or else it just won’t taste the same. I went to Mexico in 2007 and every other day we had both freshly made Conchas and hot chocolate. My family in Mexico was so lucky they had a Panaderia (Mexican Bread Bakery) down the street from their house. Not only are Conchas for breakfast but also I have seen them on Christmas Eve parties, and for my
You first need to mix up your ingredients for the dough, of course. Make sure that the dough is not so moist that it will stick to your pasta maker. Also, make sure that the dough is not too dry, or it will fall apart when it comes out. Mother thing that makes it easier when using this pasta maker is to have two people working it. One will need to hold on to the dough and feed it in while another turns the crank to make sure that the dough does not try to bunch up and get clumpy. Do this a little at a time so that you can straighten the dough as it comes out so that there is not just a big lump of clay at the end of the process. All in all, it is a very simple process even though it is a bit easier with two people working together.
A quesadilla can be an easy and low costing college meal. Ingredients needed to make are two tortillas, corn, tomato, shredded cheese and refried beans. First, take two tortillas out of the package and butter thoroughly. Next, grill the tortillas on the George Foreman grill. This will make the tortillas crispy. After you’re done grilling put on toppings of corn, tomato and cheese onto a tortilla. Then, put the other tortilla on top of the toppings and put the quesadilla back onto the grill. Finally, take the quesadilla off the grill and put refried beans on the side. Sprinkling cheese on top of the refried beans will make a delicious dip. Have fun eating your cheap, but tasty quesadilla!

The last step of this recipe is waiting. The master pot should be left on low heat for about one hour and a half to two hours while stirring consistently to prevent sticking or burning to the edges of the pan. The sauce can be thinned if too thick by simply adding some more, you guessed it, chicken stock. When the sauce is done, my grandmother usually puts some salt and pours it on some cooked chicken with rice on the sides. The rice she makes (another traditional dish) is delicious and requires a recipe of its own. But after the sauce is nice and ready, pour it on your choice of poultry or even get crative. The end result is always a happy mouth and a taste of mexican heritage itself. Enjoy.
