    I ate at king tacos a few times when i used to work in maywood. I wasn't particularly impressed. The best tacos come from places that only sell tacos, is what i've noticed.  Here's a link to a lecture on Mexican food in the U.S. he touches on the topic of authenticity and how food and culture...

    Cayenne X Black Chiltepin

    Some of my chiltepins and piquins go black sometimes, i think its some kinda sun protection. I thought yours stayed black. Sounds interesting though, wonder if the chiles will point up or down. Mine sometimes randomly cross. I'm sure i will get some surprises this season

Growing up there was always some kinda piquin/chiltepin type chile growing in the yard, my parents would plant seeds from chiles their friends gave them. My first memory of eating a chile pod was when i was 6, it was a really small type...

I get apple juice or grape juice(frozen concentrate usually) add some sugar and some bread yeast, put my airlock on top, I then let it sit for about a week or more depending on the time of year it is and the ambient heat, and that's about it. No...
