| =====How to Make Pizza Dough=====
| |
| [https://www.wikihow.com/Video/Make-Pizza-Dough by WikiHow]
| |
| To make pizza dough, first add 2 ½ cups (325 g) of flour and 1 tsp (3 g) of instant yeast to a bowl. Then, add 2 tsp (8 g) of sugar, ½ tsp (3 g) of salt, 1 tbsp (3 g) of dried oregano, and ½ tbsp (5 g) of garlic powder and whisk the dry ingredients together. Add in 2 tbsp (15 ml) of olive oil, and then gradually pour in 1 cup (240 ml) of warm water, folding it into the dry mixture. Continue to mix everything until it sticks together and start to form dough. Flour your work surface and knead the dough for 5 minutes. Shape the dough into a ball with your hands. Next, coat the inside of a bowl with oil, place the dough in it, and cover the bowl with a cloth. Let the dough rise for 1 hour before using it in your recipe.

| |
| According to self-proclaimed “pizza freak” Peter Reinhart, pizza is just “dough with stuff on it.” And whether you agree with that taxonomy or not, you can’t argue with the fact that dough with stuff on it usually is pretty delicious, regardless of its country or state of origin.

| |
| [https://www.seriouseats.com/ugali-cornmeal-porridge-recipe-8690802 by KIANO MOJU 18/2/25 Serious eats]
| |
| Ugali—a supremely satisfying dense cornmeal porridge—is a beloved staple dish in many East and Central African countries, including Kenya and Tanzania. I learned how to make ugali from many women on the Kenyan side of my family: my mother, Katano, my aunt Tilly, and my grandmother, who we call Koko.

| =====Ugali=====
| |
| [https://www.food.com/recipe/ugali-140779 by Elmotoo Food]
| |
| "I've learned a lot researching for the ZWT '05: Eastern Africa's Ugali (similar to Southern Africa's Mealie-meal, Nshima, and Sadza) is usually made from maize (corn) which was brought from the Americas to Africa by Europeans. Previously it was made from millet. These starchy Fufu-like "foundations" are the Eastern African versions of Western African staples like Fufu (which is generally made from yams, plantains, or cassava tubers) and Banku, Kenkey, or Tô. -- They are all starchy accompaniments for the African soup or stew or sauce, or other dishes with sauce or gravy.

| =====Easy Burritos=====
| |
| [https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1024725-easy-burritos by Ali Slagle 2/12/24 cooking]
| |
| Saucy and savory with just ground beef, beans and cheese, this easy recipe is inspired by Los Angeles-style burritos, which restaurant critic Jonathan Gold once summarized as “the rough equivalent of a hardhat’s lunch pail, a method of constructing a filling, portable meal from a tortilla, last night’s beans and a spoonful of stew if there was one.” This burrito’s filling eschews guacamole, sour cream, rice and raw vegetables which means it freezes well for up to 3 months.

| |
| Ihave a theory that the life of every San Franciscan, native or new, can be chronicled in burritos. There’s the First Burrito, the Worst Burrito, (many) Late-Night Drunk Burritos, the Beloved Burrito, the Convenient Burrito—and many of these, of course, change over the years, as we do.

| [https://www.food.com/recipe/mexican-burrito-bowl-374401 by JWynia Food]
| |
| "We like to get burrito bowls from Chipotle, but aren't thrilled with paying for it several times a week. This isn't anything I'd claim as a "clone", but is "inspired" by Chipotle/QDoba's burrito bowls. It's tasty, easy and filling. As a bonus, it's pretty good without any meat, making it a really viable option to serve a mixed group of vegetarian/carnivores for a party."

| |
| [https://www.seriouseats.com/indian-burrito-spinach-chickpeas-tomato-recipe by NICK KINDELSPERGER 1/4/25 Serious eats]
| |
| Basically, this is just a flavorful channa saag and white rice, all wrapped up in a tortilla. The spinach and chickpea mixture is fragrant with garlic, ginger, cumin, and garam masala, while a chopped tomato gives it body. One jalapeño helps lend a slight heat, though if you could definitely add a second one if you'd like. A drizzle of lime at the end lends acidity.

| |
| [https://www.seriouseats.com/mexican-style-burritos-machaca-guisada by CHRISTIAN REYNOSO @(?#?@% Serious eats]
| |
| Because so few ingredients are required, they need to be of the highest quality. Most critically, the eight-inch flour tortillas really should be freshly made, either by a local tortilleria or at home with a recipe like this one, which is rich with lard and milk.

| =====Mission-Style Carne Asada Burrito Recipe=====
| |
| [https://www.seriouseats.com/mission-style-burrito-carne-asada by KIANO MOJU 17/3/25 Serious eats]
| |
| The mission burrito is well known for its comical size and heft, stuffed with things like grilled meat, rice, beans, and an array of condiments. Though it comes from San Francisco's Mission District, this taqueria burrito is consumed all over the Bay Area and beyond via taqueria-inspired chain restaurants like Chipotle.

| |
| Here is a taste of a time when Mexican food was not as widely available in the United States as it is today, when parents and sports bars looked for food to serve children and those who eat like them, when the combination of crunch and fat and silk was divine.

| In these tacos, tofu stands in for meat in a vegan picadillo, cooked in a modified salsa ranchera. I’ve never been one for meat “substitutes,” and I normally don’t advocate using tofu in anything other than Asian dishes.

| |
| Maybe it’s nostalgia—the first bite that cracks the shell, sending orange grease down your wrist. Or perhaps it’s the satisfying combination of spiced meat, creamy cheese, and cool, crisp lettuce that makes hard-shell tacos so popular. Either way, Americans have an enduring love for this lunchroom and dinnertime staple.

| A true Baja California experience requires sunny, breezy patios and a plate of tacos. We aimed to re-create the feel of a Baja-style fish taco in our home kitchen, instead bringing veggies to the forefront. We thought that battered cauliflower bites, drizzled with a cool and creamy vegan sauce, were the perfect vegan stand-in for the fish. We wanted to avoid the mess of deep-frying, so we cut the cauliflower into large florets and roasted them. To boost their flavor, we dunked the pieces in canned coconut milk seasoned with garlic and spices and then rolled them in a mixture of panko bread crumbs and shredded coconut. | | |

| | Blame geography for the U.S. getting hit by stronger, costlier, more varied and frequent extreme weather than anywhere on the planet, several experts said. Two oceans, the Gulf of Mexico, the Rocky Mountains, jutting peninsulas like Florida, clashing storm fronts and the jet stream combine to naturally brew the nastiest of weather. |
