What are push arounds? *Consuming raw or undercooked meats, We were introduced to the concept of push arounds by Chef Rey recounting a special family tradition. A seafood or eggs may increase your risk push around is simply a carefully selected dried red chile fried briefly in oil until puffed to perfection. Rey of food borne illness. fondly recalls ‘finishing a plate of potatoes and yolky eggs with shards of salted push arounds, and a fresh Menu is subject to change due to tortilla as the final vessel.’ It didn't take us long to realize this idea is delicious well beyond just breakfast, seasonal availability of ingredients. so we are excited to introduce their dinner debut on the Blue Corn Cavatelli dish..

  • The Great Cornbread Conundrum: and Reinventing the Hoecake by Dan Gill, Ethno-Gastronomist
    The Great Cornbread Conundrum: and Reinventing the Hoecake by Dan Gill, Ethno-Gastronomist The Problem: For the first few years, there was something missing at “Something Different”: Cornbread, in at least one of its infinite iterations, is featured at just about every traditional Southern eatery and barbecue joint – and with good reason. Cornbreads are simple and quick, easy to make, and the perfect accompaniment for barbecue, soups, seafood and just about anything else. It is one of those “comfort” things deeply engrained in American culture. We make our own buns and subs but we have customers who have problems with wheat flour, and so we wanted to offer a gluten-free alternative. The Cornundrum: Many restaurants make cornbread on sheet pans in the morning, allow it to cool and serve it all day long. It soon gets dry and crumbly and loses the moist, steamy “goodness” of fresh cornbread. Most of the time it won’t even melt butter. Many barbecue joints throughout the South bake corn sticks or fry hushpuppies. To get that nice crunchy crust on corn sticks you need to bake them in hot, cast iron molds, which we don’t have. We would also need to operate an extra oven just for corn sticks – it gets hot enough in our deli in the summertime, thank you. Hushpuppies are easy and good, but quickly mess up cooking oil and require a separate fryer. I never found a recipe that I thought would work for us. Most modern recipes for cornbread and hushpuppies call for wheat flour and sugar – no help for the gluten intolerant and an affront to cornbread connoisseurs.

  • In Defense of Mexican Corn
    In Defense of Mexican Corn A presentation by four Zapatista representatives from the highlands of Chiapas made to the National Forum In Defense of Mexican Corn held in Mexico City January, 2002 Brothers and sisters, you who have come from different places and who are of different political affiliations. We want to thank you for giving us the opportunity to participate along with you in this national forum in defense of corn. There are four of us here, and we are from the highlands of Chiapas. We are people who are made of corn and earth, we are Tsotsil indigenous. Today they call us Tsotsiles, because our true name was transformed on the tip of the invaders' tongue. We have been indigenous ever since our mother earth gave birth to us, and we shall continue to be so until that same mother earth engulfs us. We came to represent an Autonomous Tsotsil School, located in Oventik, Aguascalientes II, in the municipality of San Andrés Sacamch'en de los Pobres in Los Altos region of Chiapas. It is a school that was born out of our indigenous and non-indigenous struggle, in which we sowed our struggle for an alternative education which emancipates humanity, because a people who do not know their history, their culture, are a dead people. It is a school that has no place for making distinctions about people, that is, men or women, large or small, white or dark, old man or old woman, we value everyone, and we are all valuable. The school belongs to you, to you who are here today, to Mexico, to the world, to those who speak badly about it today, to those who have looked down upon it.

  • Nixtamalization Was Developed in Ancient Mesoamerica Sometime Before 1200BCE
    History The process of nixtamalization was developed in ancient mesoamerica sometime before 1200BCE. As corn cultivation spread from mesoamerica the technology of nixtamalization spread with it. Different tribes and cultures used and continue to use different materials and details in the overall process. While European colonizers in the north adopted the cultivation of corn, they didn't widely adopt the process of nixtamalization, this has contributed to several historical outbreaks of pellagra, a nutrient deficiency disease caused by the lack of niacin. The word nixtamalization comes from the Nahuatl (Aztec) word nixtamalli, a compound word comprised of the words for ashes and unformed corn dough. Benefits Nixtamalization has several benefits: • Changes texture of corn dough, allowing a suitable texture for tortillas (compare the texture of corn bread to tortillas) • Changes and enhances flavor and aroma • Depending on the alkali used, adds significant amounts of calcium or potassium, as well as other potential minerals in smaller amounts. • Converts niacytin to bio-available niacin (vitamin B3) • Destroys toxins produced by molds that commonly effect drying corn Equipment: Essential: • Non-reactive Pot (stainless steel or glass) • Some form of strainer, ideally with larger holes. A over-the-sink strainer made from 1/4" mesh seems to be ideal. • Some way to grind the corn, if desired. A purpose built grinder can be ordered for around $20 on eBay (search for corn grinder) or from www.westonsupply.com, but you can also get decent results from a food processor or blender. • Frying pan, ideally cast iron, if you want to make tortillas. Optional: • Tortilla press, balls of tortilla dough can be rolled out with a rolling pin, or squished under a flat bottom casserole dish, but a tortilla press makes them quicker and easier.

  • Introduction an Experiment in Maize Processing and Charring Michele Williams University of Minnesota Departf'.Ler1t of Anthropol
    www.escholarship.org/uc/item/5p339v An Experiment in Maize Processing and Charring Michele Williams University of Minnesota Departf'.ler1t of Anthropology 1 June 1990 Introduction Maize was and still is an important food stuff in much of the New World. Maize is genetically flexible; hundreds of maize races exist adapted for many cultural uses and to an extreme range of ecological niches. Maize has served not only as food but as a religious and social symbol. The prehistoric importance of maize is illustrated in its abundance in the archaeological record. Maize appears in garbage heaps, household structures, religious structures and is even depicted on prehispanic I Peruvian pottery. Unfortunately, archaeologists working in open sites usually recover only kernel or cob fragments, rarely whole cobs. An unknown array of forces effects these isolated maize fragments before an archaeologist ever finds and analyses the remains; everything from disturbance by worms to differential deposition by humans for ceremonial purposes may occur. Therefore, reconstruction of prehistoric races of maize is very difficult. Knowing the appearance and distribution of these ancient races of maize could help us reconstruct the evolution of maize as it was mediated by humans. Many paleoethnobotanical specialists have attempted replication of archaeological maize by charring modern varieties, in order to better reconstruct the pre-charred morphology of the ancient maize by assessing the effects of charring. These experiments have been largely unsuccessful in producing undistorted, charred maize which resembles the maize typically recovered archaeologically. Toward this goal, Goette (1989) developed a method of charring maize which c~aused little kernel and cupule distortion.
