——– ———— ——————————–
3 pounds flank steak
1 1/2 cups water
6 whole garlic — peeled
6 whole black peppercorns
salt to taste
8 poblano peppers — fresh
1/2 cup lard, bacon drippings, or veg.oil
2 garlic clove — peeled and sliced
1 large onion — sliced 1/8″ thick
flour tortilla

1. Cut the flank steak in half horizontally so it will fit into a large Dutch
oven. Place it in the pot and cover it with the water. Add the six whole
cloves of garlic, along with the peppercorns and salt as desired. Place over
low heat and bring the liquid to a simmer. Cover and continue cooking over low
heat, turning the meat occasionally, until it is tender and well done, about
one and a half to two hours.

2. While the meat is stewing roast, peel and seed the peppers and slice each
pepper lenghjwise into strips an eighth of an inch wide. Set aside.

3. When the meat is tender, remove the Dutch oven from the heat and let the
meat cool in its own broth. When it coolds enough to handle, remove it from
the broth and place it on a cutting board. Slice the meat across the grain
into stips about two inches across. Using your fingers, pull the meat into
fine shreds. Return it to the broth.

4. Heat the lard or other fat in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until
it is rippling. Crush the sliced garlic cloves and add to the hot fat. Saute
for one minute, stirring frequently. Add the sliced onions and saute until
it’s somewhat soft, about three minutes. Add the reserved pepper strips to the
pan and continue sauteing and stirring for about two minutes.

5 Using a slotted spoon, transfer the peppers, onion and garlic to the Dutch
oven. Cook the meat mixture, uncovered, over medium heat, stirring frequently
until the flavors are blended about 10 to 15 minutes. Serve the meat hot,
rolled up in heated flour tortillas.

Title: Deluxe Sugar Cookies
Categories: Cookies, Holiday
Yield: 1 servings

1 c Butter or margarine
1 1/2 c Powdered sugar
1 Egg
1 ts Vanilla
1/2 ts Almond extract
2 1/2 c Flour
1 ts Soda
1 ts Cream of tartar

Cream butter and sugar. Add egg, vanilla, almond
extract. Mix well. Add flour, soda, and cream of
tartar until smooth. Chill dough 2-3 hours. Roll out
to about 1/4″ thickness. Cut dough with cookie
cutters. Bake on greased cookie sheet 7-8 minutes at
375~. These cookies are sweet and they really don’t
need any frosting, but they should be sprinkled with
colored sugar before baking. They are very pretty at
Christmas time. I make large stars and sprinkle half
of one star with green sugar and the other half with
red sugar.
