A cada necio agrada su porrada.
—Fancy Spanish proverb
For those of you wondering what a taquito is . . . well, maybe you should leave your home state at some point this year.
(JUST KIDDING! ALSO I UNDERSTAND THAT TRAVEL IS EXPENSIVE AND NOT EVERYONE HAS THE MONEY OR TIME TO GO GALLIVANTING AROUND THE COUNTRY FOR THEIR INTERNET SHOW. TOTALLY GET IT!)
A taquito is basically a soft tortilla that is layered with ingredients and then rolled to make it easiest for aiming straight to the face. Picture Homer Simpson eating hot dogs.
Cocktail
Michelada. Because we are being multicultural right now?
Ingredients
* corn tortillas (preferably smaller-ish)
* beans! or beef! or whatever!
* taco seasoning (just a dash, alt: the whole packet)
* for added crunch I recommend Fritos! Due to the rhyming factor.
* cooking oil
* sober supervision
WARNING!!!
Instructions
The first step in making a taquito is to lay out the tortilla.
The second step is to smear goodies inside.
The third step is to CRISP FRY it. This basically means using a decent (but by no means large) amount of cooking oil and heating it up and being careful of your fingers and body parts as you lightly fry the tasty treat.
Sometimes you need to embrace your compulsions.
Just go with it. And like the second step of taquito making, smear your life with possibilities. Ooh . . . that makes me think of “shmear” . . . maybe there is a way to make a Jewish taquito?
