SALVADORAN PULLED PORK PUPUSAS WITH PICKLED CABBAGE

Steps:

• For the pickled cabbage: Combine the vegetables in a large bowl. In a medium saucepan, add the vinegar, water, spices, brown sugar and salt and bring to a boil. Pour the hot pickling liquid over the vegetables. Mix the ingredients well and let stand for at least 24 hours before serving, stirring occasionally. This mixture will keep for 2 to 3 weeks covered in the refrigerator.
• For the pork filling: Season the pork with the salt and pepper and place in a medium saucepan. Add enough water to cover by 2-inches, about 6 cups. Bring to a simmer and partially cover the pot; cook until the meat is very tender and almost all of the liquid has evaporated, about 3 hours. Uncover the pork and let it slightly pan fry in its own fat, stirring, until golden brown.
• Meanwhile, combine the tomatoes, onion, garlic, jalapeno, oregano and cinnamon in a blender. Puree until smooth. Add the tomato mixture to the pork in the saucepan and stir to loosen any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Lower the heat and simmer for another 30 minutes, or until pork is falling apart and most of the liquid has reduced from the sauce. The pork mixture should be very thick. Set aside to cool while you prepare the masa dough. (This will yield more pork than you need for this recipe but any leftover can be frozen and/or used in other recipes. It makes a great filling for tacos, burritos, quesadillas or enchiladas and also works well as a sandwich filling when mixed with a tangy barbecue sauce.)
• For the dough: In a bowl, combine the masa harina with the warm water and salt mix until soft dough forms. Let stand for 20 to 30 minutes. Stir in up to a 1/4 cup of cold water, until the dough become soft but not sticky. Divide the dough into 16 golf ball size pieces. Keep the dough covered as you work.
• To form a pupusa: Rub the palm of your hands with a little olive oil. While holding of the dough balls in 1 hand, press the thumb of the other hand in the middle of the ball of dough to form an indentation, then turning the dough, begin to flatten it with your fingertips into a 4-inch concave disk resembling a small bowl. In the center of the disk add 2 tablespoons of the pork and 1/2 tablespoon of the shredded cheese. Bring the edges of the dough together over the filling and squeeze to form a seal. Working gently, press the dough into a flattened disk, flattening the dough middle and edges to form a thick pancake shape about 4-inches in diameter. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
• Lightly rub the pupusas with oil and place them on a heated, greased griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each side until golden brown in spots and slightly puffy, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve hot, with a serving of the pickled cabbage on the side.

PORK LOIN IN THE OVEN WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Put the loin on a baking dish and with a sharp knife make 4 to 5 cuts across the loin. Season with salt, 6 unpeeled crushed garlic, white wine, onions cut into quarters, bay leaf, pepper and 100 ml (1/2 cup) olive oil. Let marinade for two hours.
• Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350ºF).
• Bake until the loin starts to turn golden brown, about 1 hour and 50 minutes. Occasionally, drizzle the loin with the sauce.
• Meanwhile, season the shrimp with lemon juice and salt. Let marinade for 30 minutes.
• Put 50 ml (1/4 cup) olive oil and two chopped cloves of garlic in a skillet and sauté over low heat about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the shrimps and fry them over low heat about 7 to 8 minutes. When the shrimps are fried, turn off the heat and let cool. Peel them and set aside.
• When the pork loin is almost baked, remove briefly the baking dish from the oven and add the shrimps. Place back the baking dish on the oven for more 10 minutes.
• Turn off the oven and serve the pork loin with mashed potato.

SHRIMP AND PORK POT STICKERS

Steps:

• Make dumplings:
• Stir together 1 1/2 cups flour and lukewarm water (1/2 cup) in a bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Knead on a lightly floured surface, adding more flour as needed if dough is sticky, until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes. Dust dough lightly with flour and cover with an inverted bowl, then let stand at room temperature at least 10 minutes and up to 1 hour (to let gluten relax).
• If using fresh water chestnuts, scrub very well, then peel with a sharp paring knife and rinse. Cover fresh water chestnuts with 1 1/2 cups water in a 1-quart saucepan and bring to a boil, then boil until chestnuts are crisp-tender and slightly translucent, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water to cool.
• Cut fresh or canned water chestnuts into 1/4-inch dice and put in a medium bowl along with shrimp, pork, scallions, soy sauce, ginger, and sesame oil. Knead mixture with your hands until just combined, then chill, covered, 10 minutes.
• While shrimp mixture chills, line a large baking sheet with paper towels and dust lightly with flour, then lightly dust work surface with flour. Halve dough and cover 1 half with inverted bowl. Pat remaining half into a flat square, then roll out into a 13-inch square (less than 1/8 inch thick) with a lightly floured rolling pin, dusting work surface with additional flour as needed. Cut out 12 rounds, very close together, using cutter. (If dough sticks to cutter, lightly dip cutter in flour and shake off excess). Reroll scraps if necessary.
• Transfer rounds to lined baking sheet and cover loosely with another layer of paper towels lightly dusted (on top) with flour. Roll out remaining half of dough and cut out 12 more rounds in same manner, then transfer rounds to top layer of paper towels.
• Line another large baking sheet with paper towels and dust lightly with flour. With your hand palm-up, put 1 dough round on fingers near palm, then put 1 tablespoon pork mixture in center of round and fold it over filling to form an open half-moon shape. With a wet finger, moisten border along lower inner edge of round. Using thumb and forefinger of one hand, form 10 to 12 tiny pleats along unmoistened edge of dumpling skin, pressing pleats against moistened border to enclose filling. The moistened border will stay smooth and will automatically curve in a semicircle. Stand dumpling on a baking sheet and form 23 more dumplings in same manner (you may have some filling left over), arranging them in 1 layer, about 1/2 inch apart. Cover loosely with paper towels.
• Make sauce:
• Stir together soy sauce, vinegar, water, and chile oil in a small bowl. Restir just before serving.
• Cook dumplings:
• Heat vegetable oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then arrange 7 dumplings, seam sides up, in a tight spiral pattern in center of skillet. Arrange remaining 17 dumplings along outer edge (they should touch one another). Fry dumplings until bottoms are pale golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water, tilting skillet to distribute, then cover tightly with a lid and cook until liquid is evaporated and bottoms of dumplings are crisp and golden, 7 to 10 minutes. (Use a spatula to loosen and lift edges to check bottoms; replace lid and continue cooking if necessary, checking after 1 to 2 minutes.) Remove lid and invert a large plate with a rim over skillet. Using pot holders and holding plate and skillet tightly together, invert dumplings onto plate. Serve dumplings immediately, with dipping sauce.

PORK & SHRIMP PARTY PUPUSAS #RSC

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for spice mix, set aside.
• Peel and de-vein thawed shrimp, then chop very fine or use a food processor to grind to similar consistency of the ground pork. In a large bowl, combine the ground pork and shrimp. Reserve 1 Tablespoon of spice mix, and pour the rest into the pork/shrimp mixture, along with 2 Tablespoons of the lime juice and 1 1/2 Tablespoons of the oil. Stir to combine, cover, and place in the fridge to marinate for an hour.
• Remove pork/shrimp from fridge. Using a large skillet (preferably a cast iron skillet) saute the pork/shrimp mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until cooked through and lightly browned (about 15 minutes). Place cooked mixture in another large bowl, set aside, and return skillet to heat. Add the other 1 1/2 tablespoon of oil to skillet, along with the shallots and garlic, saute about 2 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the frozen corn kernels and continue to saute, another 2 minutes, then add the bell peppers, poblano pepper, black beans, and reserved Tablespoon of spice mix and continue to cook until all the veggies are cooked through (about another 15 minutes). Remove pan from heat and combine the veggie mixture with the shrimp/pork mixture in bowl and add the other 2 Tablespoons of lime juice. Set this aside & let cool to about room temperature. Once cooled, add the shredded cheese, mix well, & set aside while you make the pupusa dough. Rinse & wipe skillet clean to use again.
• In another large bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients for the pupusa dough. Add the water, about a half cup at a time, until the dough forms a large, easy to handle ball. Form the dough into 32 equal sized balls (a little larger than a golf ball), cover with a damp cloth/paper towel & let rest 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 250`F.
• Place 2 pupusa balls about 6" apart between 2 sheets of parchment paper. Press each ball flat using a 6" skillet or plate or whatever you have on hand, to make 2 equal sized rounds. Top one round with 1 - 2 Tablespoons of the filling mixture, then place the other round on top. Press the edges together to enclose the filling and then LIGHTLY press to flatten/even out the thickness of the pupusa, doing your best not to crack the dough or blow out the filling. Perfection is not necessary -- they will still be delicious even if they are "bulging" a little, trust me, we found that out :).
• Put your skillet back over medium heat. Brush one side of the filled pupusa with oil and place, oil side down, in skillet. Cook about 2 minutes (until brown spots begin to form), brush the other side of the pupusa with oil, flip and cook another 2 minutes until browned on that side. Place the pupusa on a cookie sheet in oven to keep warm. Continue this process until all the pupusas are done.
• Serve these with cilantro, sour cream, lime wedges, and Hidden Valley Original Ranch dressing for dipping!
• Note: we had a nice little assembly line going, cooking 2 pupusas at a time in the skillet. Some were brushing with oil and flipping, while others were pressing and forming. Tons O' Fun! FYI, if you have a little filling left over, freeze for later or stuff in some taco shells, super yummy!
