Chipotle Mayo And Blue Corn Tortilla Chips Corn On The Cob Food

BAKED TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush both sides of the tortillas with the oil. Stack the tortillas and cut the pile into sixths to make chips. Spread the chips out in a single layer on two large baking sheets and season with salt. Bake until golden brown and crisp, rotating the baking sheets once, about 12 to 15 minutes. Serve.

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB WITH CHIPOTLE MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Light a medium-hot grill while you prepare your corn. Remove the outer leaves of the husk, leaving two layers. Gently pull down the remaining leaves, pull off the silk and fold the husks back up, covering the corn. Cut 12 to 24 pieces of butcher's string about six inches long, and moisten them with water. Tie the cobs at the top and midway down with the wet string. Place in a bowl or a sink full of cold water, and soak for 15 to 30 minutes while you prepare the chipotle dip.
• Place the garlic in a mortar and pestle with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and mash to a smooth paste. Add the chipotle, and mash together with the garlic. Stir in the chipotle sauce, mayonnaise and yogurt, and mix together well.
• When the coals of your grill are medium-hot, remove the corn from the water and pat dry. Place on the grill, and grill until the corn is uniformly charred, turning the ears often. This could take anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the heat. Remove from the grill and, holding onto the ears with a kitchen towel, cut away the strings and remove the leaves. Wrap the corn in a kitchen towel to keep warm.
• Serve with the chipotle dip. Place a generous spoonful on a plate, and roll the corn in it or spread it on the corn with a knife.

HOMEMADE TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix salt and chili powder. Cut each tortilla into 4 wedges. In an electric skillet, heat 1 in. of oil to 350°. Fry chips, several at a time, 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels., Transfer chips to a large bowl; sprinkle with salt mixture and gently toss to coat.

CHIPOTLE CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Pull husks back on corn. In a small bowl combine the chipotle, lemon zest and juice and butter. Rub half the butter on corn and pull the husk back up. Grill corn for 3 minutes per side.
• Serve with remaining butter.

BLUE CORN TORTILLAS

Steps:

• You will need a medium-sized bowl, a griddle or heavy skillet at least 8 inches in diameter, and a rolling pin.
• Place corn meal in a bowl and pour boiling water over. Stir to mix well. Let sit for fifteen minutes. Mix in one-half cup of all purpose flour. Turn this mixture out onto a bread board spread with 1/4 cup of flour. Knead for 2 to 3 minutes, incorporating the 1/4 cup of flour into the dough (and if necessary, use a little more). The dough will be soft but not at all strong. Return the dough to the bowl and cover. Let rest for 30 minutes.
• Divide the dough into eight pieces. Between well-floured palms, make flat round patties out of each of the eight and set aside. Heat your griddle over medium high heat, making sure that it is hot before you cook the first tortilla. On a well-floured surface (as the dough is quite sticky), carefully roll out a tortilla until it is approximately 7 to 8 inches in diameter. (We find it easiest to first pat out the dough with our fingers or between our palms, and then to roll out the tortilla at the very last just to make it uniform in thickness). Cook the tortilla as you would a wheat tortilla, approximately one minute on each side. The tortillas will be flecked with brown on both sides. When cooked, remove and wrap in a kitchen towel. Stack one on top of another.

CHIP-CRUSTED GRILLED CORN

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients. Refrigerate, covered, until serving. Place tortilla chips in a shallow bowl. Grill corn, covered, over medium heat until tender, turning occasionally, 15-20 minutes., When cool enough to handle, spread corn with mayonnaise mixture; roll in chips. Grill corn, covered, until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes longer. Serve with lime wedges.

BLUE CORN AND SPELT TORTILLAS

Steps:

• Heat a cast iron fry pan. Do not add any oil to the pan!
• In a food processor combine the flours, cilantro and chipotle season and give them a mix.
• Add the warm water and process again until you have a nice dough.
• When it's done turn out on a floured board and knead for about 3 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 16 balls.
• If you have a tortilla press it will make this much easier. Put the tortilla ball in between the stretch wrap and press. The tortillas came out about 4" around, so they aren't big.
• If you don't have a press, just roll the tortillas out. Put them in a dish covered with stretch wrap until you are ready to cook them.
• Removed the tortilla and place in the hot fry pan and when the edges curl a little flip it over and let it cook for another few seconds. Check to see if you have some browning, if you do and the tortilla is dry take it off and cool.
• Repeat the above until you have 16 tortillas.
• I used a little tortilla dish to reheat them in the microwave. This probably will be necessary because they do get stiff if they get cold.
• Serve with your favourite toppings.
• Bon Appetit!
