Tacos are wonderful

Tacos are wonderful

So wonderful.

[GiglameshDespair]

I've never had tacos.

[Cryxis, Prince of Doom]

..... You poor soul

[timferius]

A divisive question for you all then. Soft or hard shell?

[Cryxis, Prince of Doom]

Depends on what's in the taco

[wobbly]

Soft, but only because I fill them with so much stuff that'll never stay in a hard taco. What I really need is a giant-sized hard taco.

[Cryxis, Prince of Doom]

Pork and pinnapple in hard tacos and just about anything else in soft because they get stuffed with so much stuff

[Sirus]

Trick question. The correct answer is crunchy shell, that glorious middle ground between the pliability of a soft shell with the crispness of a hard shell.

So in the last week I've made panang curry, achari chicken, and some random chop suey thing out of chicken thighs, cauliflower, bean sprouts, bamboo, mushrooms, Shaoxing wine, ponzu, five-spice powder, crushed garlic and miso paste. And angel hair pasta because I was out of rice noodle. No recipe, just throwing shit in there and hoping it didn't suck.

10/10 Would suey again. 

I also have a large packet of enoki mushrooms that I need to find a use for. Anybody used enokis much before?

Today I had to use refried beans instead of kidney beans in my chicken taco recipe.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Turned out great!

I thought pinto/refried beans was what everyone used for tacos? It's what I've always used anyway.

A divisive question for you all then. Soft or hard shell?

Hard when I order them from restaurants.

Soft when I'm making them at home, grocery store hard shells go stale so fast it's absurd, the sell by date is complete fiction and heating them up like they suggest barely helps at all.

Funny that tacos come up, I just made turkey tacos the other day with ground turkey instead of ground beef. Amazing! much, much better then beef tacos IMO.

[Sirus]

Hell yeah, ground turkey.

So can I ask what people tend to eat for staple food around here? I mean discussion of fancy things is nice and all, but what can you expect to just sort of have on hand?
For me it's generally some sort of pasta dish with some sauce boiled down from available things, or rice friend up with vegetables and sometimes meat if there's any left over from a special food product.
