Entre mis andanzas por la #ciudad me crucé con este lugar. Llegan recuerdos de #infancia cuando mi mamá @irenegomezgonzalez nos llevaba con mi hermana @yishelvenegas a esperar a mi padre en la salida de su turno de trabajo y mientras salía esperábamos en una de estas casetas, muy típica de estas zonas industriales, la vitrina que mantiene caliente las #empanadas, las #arepas y el #HuevoDuro, la emisora con música popular o vallenatos, la madera desgastada de la vitrina, el sonido de la olla a presión, el olor de la comida en cocción, el ají en un tarrito, las bolsas colgadas de comida de paquetes (papas, chitos, galletas, etc), la vitrina con gaseosas, cervezas o yogur y la señora que atiende que casi no se ve de todas las cosas en exhibición. Recuerdo mucho que varias veces no había para comprar algo y miraba todo esto pasando saliva. #buenosmomentos #MomentoInolvidable (en Colombina Planta Helados)

BEEF EMPANADAS
Adapted from Gourmet and Smitten Kitchen

Ever since we were offered a steaming plate of cheese and meat empanadas during a rowdy Colombian soccer game, we’ve been desperate to make some of our own. Today we embarked on a fairly long empanada adventure, and only just now pulled them out of the oven. I debated about posting this, because I have to admit the empanadas were not fantastic, and I try to only post wonderful things. They were good, quite good, and I’ve already eaten three. But the recipe definitely needs some work, and I’m hoping some of you can help me. I found them too dry and a little lacking in flavor. Next time, I’ll add more spices but what to do about the lack of moisture? Help me out yall!

Update: We tried frying our second batch and wow, what a difference. So delicious this time!

Serving: Makes a dozen 6-inch empanadas

Ingredients:

Filling: 

2 hard-boiled large eggs, chopped into bits
1 egg for egg wash
½ medium onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
¾ teaspoon dried oregano
¾ pound ground beef chuck
2 tablespoons raisins (optional)
1 ½ tablespoons chopped pimiento-stuffed olives
1 (14-ounce) can whole tomatoes in juice, drained, reserving 2 tablespoons juice, and chopped (I decided to use fresh tomatoes instead, which works just as well)
1 package frozen empanada pastry disks, thawed (or homemade, recipe follows)

Empanada Dough:

4 ½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons salt
2 sticks (1 cup or 8 ounces) cold unsalted butter, cut into ½-inch cubes
2 large eggs
2/3 cup ice water
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar

Egg Wash:

1 egg 
2 teaspoons water 

Directions:

Filling:

1. Cook onion in olive oil in a heavy medium skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until softened. 
2. Add garlic, cumin, and oregano and cook, stirring, 1 minute. 
3. Stir in beef and cook, breaking up lumps with a fork, until no longer pink, about 4 minutes.
4. Add raisins, olives, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and tomatoes with reserved juice, then cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced but mixture is still moist, about 5 minutes. Stir in hard boiled egg and spread on a plate to cool.

Empanada Dough:

1. Sift flour with salt into a large bowl and blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal with some (roughly pea-size) butter lumps.
2. Beat together egg, water, and vinegar in a small bowl with a fork. Add to flour mixture, stirring with fork until just incorporated. (Mixture will look shaggy.)
3. Turn out mixture onto a lightly floured surface and gather together, then knead gently with heel of your hand once or twice, just enough to bring dough together. 
4. Form dough into two flat rectangles and chill them, each wrapped in plastic wrap, at least 1 hour. Dough can be chilled up to 6 hours total.
5. When done chilling, lay a large sheet of plastic wrap on a dampened work surface (to help keep plastic in place), then roll out an empanada disk on plastic wrap to measure about 6 inches, or smaller, depending on the size you desire. Place 3 tablespoons meat mixture on disk. Moisten edges of disk with water and fold over to form a semicircle, then crimp with a fork. Make rest of empanadas in same manner.

Egg wash:

1. Beat together one egg and 2 teaspoons of water.

To Cook:

1. Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Lightly brush empanadas with egg wash and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until golden, about 25 minutes. Transfer empanadas to a rack to cool at least 5 minutes.
3. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Books, Tea, and the Trinity: Sweet Cream Scones

Books, Tea, and the Trinity: Sweet Cream Scones

Back in 2020, some friends and I started a Tea Party/Bible Study/Book Club. We met every Wednesday and worked our way through the Chronicles of Narnia and are currently working through the Lorien Legacies. When we started I resolved to share all the recipes, but have fallen behind in posting. Instead of having the book we are reading through at the front of the recipe, I’m changing it to be our…

Last week, I assigned my ESL “class” (four students in the volunteer library program) some homework: write out the instructions for preparing a favorite food of theirs. It was something we’d done in Spanish class years ago, and I thought it’d be good practice for the commands (imperative). It did prove to be a great exercise, but one student in particular went above and beyond. Much to my surprise, and everyone’s delight, my Colombian student brought in a box of homemade empanadas, as per his English recipe!
