Thank you for talking about it being labor intensive to make pico. As someone learning these things I always think that I must be making things harder or take longer because I'm just not very good so it's nice to know occassionally that some of this stuff just takes time and effort no matter wha your skill level.
If you're feeding other people, don't keep these secret ingredients secret. For example, the beer in the pico de gallo could pose a serious health risk for someone with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Since it's not a "normal" ingredient someone might assume it's safe for them to eat. By all means, enjoy the added flavor of the beer, just please don't surprise people with allergens. I usually ask guests if they have any food allergies or dietary restrictions ahead of time, that way it's easier to ensure everyone has enough to eat.
I'm loving your content. You have a very diverse background! Filipino, Mexican, Sirian, American! Full of surprises, chef. Your Spanish isn't bad at all!
I like to roast the peppers first, and use home made pickled mustard seed in there (instead of beer or bouillon). Sometimes use beef taloe to process on of the veg in the pico
Pico is the best. Goes with almost anything. I put a little Caldo de Tomate in mine instead of salt. I also use red onion. I learned to make Mexican food from a sweet abuela who had a very successful restaurant where I live. She was from Vera Cruz, Vera Cruz, Mexico. There is a very large Hispanic population in the Quad Cities. Most came from Vera Cruz or Guanajuato. Very different styles of cooking.
Mexican American here. I had a good comal for my flour and corn tortillas but I got a carbon steel crepe pan which made it more versatile to cook on. Those comales are heavy.
@@acooknamedMatt It's more of a salad, una ensalada. I know it consists of everything a traditional salsa has, and Daddy Google says it is. In a restaurant, in My life's experience, if you aren't already served pico de gallo and want some you say you want pico de gallo not salsa. It's also never labeled under salsas, that I've seen. It's labeled under appetizers. It's entirely possible that in Texas that May be so. In Mexican culture, AS Far As I know, it isn't considered a salsa. Great video by the way!
Hahaha, this title is hilarious. In México you'll get more than two salsas in every restaurant. Even the same style will taste different everywhere. Then you come and say that you only need to try two of them? Ha! Take some of that hard earned money and visit Mexico. You may realize where you got lost.
I had forgotten what real energy felt like, yeah, it’s been over 2 years and I don’t crave the stuff anymore, surprisingly I didn’t suffer withdrawal and that was key, not even within the first days after go’ogling Steffon Barkload’s Quit Drinking Forever and quitting because I wanted to with no pressure or anything.

Don't ever apologize for your life, just produce great content and more taco salsas please! I learn things from you every video you put out.
These are genuinely the best looking sauces & tacos I’ve seen. Yesss, id love a masterclass on your Breakfast Taco’s.
Lived in Houston for 20 years - absolutely the best tacos ever - Stripes was insanely good - thanks for this video
Man you are super easy to watch and I am definitely making that salsa taqueria for homemade sopes later
YES on the breakfast taco video!!

I need that video on breakfast tacos and breakfast in general, awesome video :)
Coming soon!
I agree!!
People just need to accept that there are variations of actual Mexican food within the US. It's a thing, and it's delicious.
So many delicious things that’s why it’s important to taste
That's with Every food in Probably every country. That is especially true in the US, it perverts All foods...

Your knife skills are amazing!! 😅😅 You have perfect dicing skills. 😊
It’s been a while since my mouth watered watching TH-cam, but I can honestly say my mouth watered
I’d like a video on plating! Especially plating Mexican dishes.
Best tacos are usually found in gas stations in Texas! Definitely trying some beer in my next pico. Always love the story time vids!
Love the additional commentary. Videos are high quality as always
Great Video

It's Veracruz, Veracruz. There is no space in either city or state.

You take your comal off the stove? 🤔
Pico de gallo on everything! Yes 👏🏼😋
So good!
This is one of your best long forms yet keep up this style! 🤘🏻
Appreciate it!
Great video Matt
Vid on the frijoles like the ones you just spread on the breakfast taco 🌮 ❤
And yes I’d love a taco/tortilla masterclass
Bro I need a full video on that Miche mix! I also quit drinking but a sparkling water miche hits the spot 👌🏼
You guys realize there's zero alcohol beer?? Same traditional taste, I assume, with no intoxicant.
Use Corona Cero instead. La cerveza sin alcohol mexicana es estupenda para cocinar.
Great use of the middle of the tomatoes. I thought I really knew how to make pico de gallo but I have to admit, yours sounds better.
Glad it was helpful!
you're a food scientist 😍
If you could come over with really good gluten-free tortillas, we would love that!
Refried beans in breakfast burritos or tacos is elite. There is no better breakfast out there.
Pico de gallo will always be king in my eyes. Soo fresh and delicious.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE TACOS AND TAQUITOS!
I want to try it
I'll have to try the bullion next time I make either of those
good shit as always
Thank you
if you did add beer, then how much?
I love some Pico in an omelet with a salsa taquera or a red hot salsa on top
Classic
You make it look great and easy but I know those tortillas are better than easy
bouillon cube a good idea; I like to use a wee bit of tequila rather than beer.
Congrats on staying sober! Very impressive!!
Appreciate that thanks
What brand is that knife you’re using? Is it a dead fish?
Its custom made by FireHorse forge in seattle
I want everything you got
I’ve always loved Mexican food. But ain’t shit compared to the tacos and burritos I’ve had in the rgv. Truly wild the difference

High five, also quit drinking last November and feel great.

That's a giant bullion cube,4x bigger than mine.
Pico de gallo Isn't a salsa, but it Is great!
What do you mean it isn't a salsa? You look it up on Google and it says it is. In fact it salsa it's also called Salsa Fresca or Salsa Cruda.
What is it then ? Haha
@@jdawg11125 A salsa is a sauce, that's what salsa Means. Yeah some may Call it that but it is not a salsa.

Since you won't tell us the ingredients of the taco I'm assuming you're putting peanut butter on the taco like a madman @10:38
