Correct way to eat a fajita???
Alan Boles
Now don't misunderstad OK?
How do you eat a fajita without getting all slobbed up. Juice running
down your arms, face all juicy...
Is there a proper way to fold the tortilla or am I making free with
too much salsa and sour cream or both or what???
I am not calling anyone a slobb. Well maybe me.
Karen O'Mara
hehehe I saw you and your juicy arms on rfc just a sec ago. I think
fajitas are meant to be eaten in the bathtub.

Since fajitas originally were a Tex-Mex. ranch hand dish cooked and eaten
primarily outdoors I suggest you just let the excess salsa drip on the
ground.
The other option is to fold the tortillas first in half and then in half
again and use it as a piece of bread and eat the fajitas with a knife and
fork.
Finally, the hotter the salsa, the less you use, the less you use, the less
to drip out.

eat fajitas in corn or flour tortillas with a bit of salsa. Fold the
tortilla in half and go for it. Usually we don't add sour cream.
Bar-B-que Fajitas is all we really need. Add a bit of refried beans, or
beans ala charro, rice and a cold one and you have one of the finest
meals you could think of. Many a week-ends have been spent before a
grill with plenty of Cervasa, ritas and good company. sliced avacado is
sometimes added to the tortilla. A good batch of Guacamole with tortilla
chips before the meal with a salsa of tomato, onion serano pepper and
lime juice, again with a cold one is a must before the fajita is
served. Hope this helps.

No no, you're doing it wrong.
You're supposed to use the tortilla as a funnel for the soupy stuff...

eat the foods with a knife and a fork.
We did this all though Mexico and it worked terribly well.

Are you saying you eat tacos with a knife and fork?
eaglesam
noted) without a knife and fork?
You would end up having it all over the place.
Would you suggest eating the salad that goes with the tacos with your fingers?

I assume that's a rhetorical question.

Would you mind telling us where you live? I'm just curious and mean no

OK, what's going on here? I carefully read through nineteen,
count 'em, nineteen, responses to this question, and not a single
person got snooty and said that fajitas aren't Mexican. This is
USENET, people. SOMEBODY is supposed to insult the posting
party for being such a rube, and then expound on the full etymology
of the word and its regional nuances. Then several others were
to nitpick about that person's statements. If you guys can't
do it right, I may have to ask for instructions on how to
unsubscribe from this newsgroup.
This place is just too nice. I'm not sure how long I can take
it.

Take away the name (and the sauteed bell pepper and onions) and they are
a pretty "Mexican", sort of standard in rural areas and the "mixed
grill" specialty restaurants of North Mexico, with the employment of
"skirt steak" for the dish likely having a fairly simple historic
justification...it worked, after the choice cuts were diverted for sale
or for the consumption of los ricos/el patron, etc.
As with the peppers and onions, the additions of guacamole and sour
cream are in my memory among the school of USAan adaptions/upscale
fancifying, with the versions from early days being accompanied by
tortillas, beans and salsa(s), less but stlll potentially drippy,
although the little known "burrito-fold" (a sort of lower-lip flip only
possible with big tortillas) of unknown provenance works OK if you hold
the damn thing in a clenched fist and never put it down.

Thanks for answering by e-mail. Your message was truncated (although I
got the main part) and my response bounced, so I'm posting here to

Actually, it's available on www.topsecretrecipes.com :) We made them once
and it was pretty good.
