PUFFY TACOS SAN ANTONIO STYLE!! STEP BY STEP ❤
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 чер 2024
- These PUFFY TACOS is a very popular dish, I first had them in San Antonio Texas about 5 years ago, but I'm sure they've been around longer than that, the key ingredient in these tacos is the homeade crispy puffy shell folded and filled with this authentic chicken filling, variations are endless, but chicken is always my favorite, garnishes like the traditional chopped lettuce, diced tomatoes and onions are guacamole, sour cream and of course the SALSA, I love tomatillo or SALSA DE MOLCAJETE, but just about any type will do. This delicious filling can also be frozen for later use and these tacos are perfect for a festive party, very easy to make and a meal all into one.

Hello Rachel and Ron. I'm from Stockton California I'm 16 years old and my name is Jorge. My brothers and I live with my grandpa who is a math and science teacher.
Our mother was a good cook like you and made meals from scratch before she died.
Watching your cooking videos we really make our own flour and corn tortillas and the flour tortillas are amazing. We make them thicker.
Most of the time grandpa let's our friends eat over so we have to
Increase the ingredients using math to determine how much more we need to add to your recipes. Grandpa makes everything we do a learning lesson where we have to use math for portion, Good English for description and even discussions on the history of food we are preparing.
It really helps us learn to use our brain to know-how much more we need to add to feed extra people.
I want you to know my 3 brothers and 8 kids we go to school with on our street all got A's on math and most our subjects.
Our friends mother makes videos for a living and she has filmed us cooking your puffy tacos for 13 kids and 3 adults using basic algebra to calculate how much extra to add to your recipes. She is going to share this with the news channel here so they can see how the kids on our street do homework.
We made sure to let them know all about both you Rachel and Ron and how you make videos from your home to teach people how to cook. We owe good eating and good grades in school to your videos because you give approximate portions that can be adjusted mathematically to feed extra kids.
This is my grandpa Rick's email I am writing this to you who is your big fan.
Thank you both for teaching our family and friends to cook amazing food.
We joke a lot and say your UA-cam channel saved us from fast food poisoning. Sincerely Jorge Rivera
Dear Jorge, thank you so much for sharing, wow!! I am so impressed with what is going on with you, your brothers and friends in your neighborhood, your grandpa is amazing to be so dedicated to you and your brothers and friends. You are going to have these beautiful memories stay in your heart forever and that is so wonderful...it would be great if all neighborhoods were like yours. I am so proud to know that I could do something to help, and the fact that you all have A's is impressive. Math was my worst subject, I was always so afraid of it, and still am, I guess it's because I didn't learn the basics well so everything just got harder... Your grandpa is so dedicated to you all, and that is a blessing. Thank you for sharing my channel with your friends mom, ( i bet it was fun being filmed while making the puffy tacos). I am so proud of you Jorge, you sound like a wonderful young man, please stay in touch with me, I enjoyed your happy comment and again thank you for sharing all that is going on my friend. Blessings to you and your family, Merry Christmas from my Ron and I. ❤
Rachel, we would like to send you 3 of the videos we had made cooking tortillas, puffy tacos and our Thanksgiving turkey dinner.
For Thanksgiving we had to increase portions for 18 extra people plus enough for everyone to take food home.
It was amazing.
Mr brother said we can email the videos on Wednesday.
What a beautiful story Jorge! I live somewhat close to you by the San Francisco airport. Your story touched me very deeply. Your mother would be so proud of you. I hope you never lose your joy of cooking or your love of math. You have an amazing grandfather May he be blessed with health and may your family and friends as well. What a wonderful story! Thank you for sharing with Rachel and her community.
@@rickrivera2734Jorge, thank you for sharing your story!❤
Hi Jorge, I loved your story. What a wonderful man your grandfather must be. I also live in Nor Cal , about 45 minutes from Stockton in Antioch. Small world. Loved the puffy taco video, too.
Respectfully, Francesca
I have lived in San Antonio all my adult life, and all my adult life I have been looking for someone who knew how to make these. Today I found her. I'm so happy. 👍
Never had a puffy taco but had a puffy tostado. It’s excellent
Me too!😊
Never made a puffy taco 🌮
It's my next meal.
Thx ❤❤ 🌮
Those look lovely ❤
Yummm! They look delicious!
Hi Rachel, I watched this video and your Cabbage Roll video, my first thought was "she needs to have her own show on the Food Network.!!" You are so great at explaining the recipes and so organized, I like your kitchen very much!! And I like how you speak so clearly and at a perfect pace, you are incredible Rahel. My son and I cook together every night,and on the weekends we make new recipes we have never done before. Since it's still cold we have been making big batches of homemade soups, we eat some and have enough to freeze for another day. We bought a small freezer this year , we needed the room since we double all the recipes so we can freeze a batch everytime. He surprised me one night and made from scratch soft taco shells. They were so easy to make and so very delicious, I don't ever want to eat a soft shell from a bag again. I will buy him the press machine as soon as I look at all of them, and find a good brand to purchase. I hit like on both videos and of course subscribed!! I will be watching your videos every night. I am going back there now to watch your salsa recipes. 😋 Thank You for being special and so friendly Rachel. 💛 😁😋👋🌮🍅🫑🌶🥑 Wanda
I am from San Antonio and have eaten at all the local, well-known, self-proclaimed inventors of puffy tacos. An order with 3 puffy tacos, rice and beans is about $13.00 and does not include cheese or guacamole which is extra. I’d never made them but after watching your video I made them today and they are literally the best I have ever eaten. I cannot believe how light and crispy they were but your recipe/technique nailed it 100%!! These are not as good as the originals, they are better. Thank you!!!! 💙💙💙
There's nothing more soothing than a beautiful woman with a calm voice and with a bomb recipe!😍🤗💖
Your the best!
😊❤️👏🙌👍🤝 thanks for sharing
Ms Rachel 🫶 Your the kind of neighbor
and friend, everybody would love to have ⚘️ Your a beautiful soul 🙏 and an amazing cook.😋 👍🤝 ⚘️
I loved the presentation but mama, it could be simplified. Seriously I had to forward through 4 puffy taco shells...loved it anyways.
Ah, the picture makes me hungry. Thanks for the recipe and presentation 😊
Thank you for showing how San Antonio makes puffy Tacos. Love the way you made it your own style.
You belong on the cooking network, your incredible. ❤️
Thank you so much for your comment. ❤⚘👍
Rachel, I agree with Sandra! I was just thinking the same exact thing. You are a natural, you cook well you teach well, and you can tell that you truly love what you do and it reflects in all that you prepare. You're a natural. I'm going to recommend you to Bobby flay and the food Network. Unless you don't want to do something like that?
@@patsyporter1777 Thank you so much for your comment. I don't know what to say, I am my worst critic, but I do love what I do more than anything I know...you can do it if you feel it in your heart. Thank you so much for believing in me.❤
Your tacos came out so beautiful and look absolutely delicious. I will definitely give them a try. How about a tamale recipe.
YES SHE DOES 💛
I watch random videos of cooking the food you cook, and I'm like..."No your doing it wrong, that's not how Rachel does it"! 😂 All in all you do it the best, and I've learned a lot! Thank you! 💓
Rachel Ray makes a lot of slop now
This is the first comment I have ever posted on UA-cam. I just want to say that your passion for cooking is just so natural and beautifully addicting...it seriously takes my heart over. I love to cook, but I stopped cooking three years ago due to an awful divorce I am still surviving from. I was raised by strong Mexican women, my Abuela and my Mama. I was blessed to have been raised in Mexico and in America. I have not been able to cook due to my severe depression from my broken family and struggling to raise my son on my own. The guilt of not being able to cook for him like I used to has overtaken me, BUT I am so over it. I am making your flautas as we speak in three variations: beef, potato and ground beef, black bean vegetarian, and chicken...will definitely be freezing. I also have frijoles in the olla and about to start on my famous rice. Thank you for bringing my passion back for my child. He is overjoyed and glad his Mama is back. God bless you.
Yay!! I was so happy to read this my friend, I’m so glad you are enjoying my channel and that you are feeling better… the best is yet to come, you are the strongest when you feel your weakest. A bad divorce can be so painful, but time will heal your heart and you are blessed to have your son, both of you can help heal each other, one day at a time. I send you a warm hug and blessings. ❤️
Hi and thank you for all your recipes, i sure will try those fluffy tacos, they look so delicious,i haven’t done those tacos, i didn’t know that you could put the tortilla in the oil like that,i make corn tortillas like that, but not the Maseca, thank you Rachel for showing me. I’m 68years old and still learning to cook other foods because of you and Stephanie this other nice lady that also has her cooking channel, thank you and God bless you and your Ron.
Hi Rachel & Ron. We made your puffy tacos yesterday.
I had my grandsons and 4 of their friends here all helping. They came out so good it was amazing. Afterwards one of the boys asked if we could make some to take to his dad and mom so they could see how we made them from your video.
His mom told a neighbor about us making puffy tacos, she told her brother and his wife about your puffy tacos and today all of us made more puffy tacos in our back yard and both you and Ron were the topic
On how we found you and the other videos you made.
Thank you both for your easy to make good food.
Rick & Grandsons Stockton CA.
What a wonderful success story my friend!! I know these puffy tacos are super delicious, it is one of our favorite meals. It sounds like you had a wonderful time with your grandsons and 4 of their friends, you are awesome. I'm so happy you enjoyed these PUFFY TACOS and I'm grateful you shared too. These are the successful stories that keep me doing what I love. Thank you so much for your comment and support of my channel. ❤👍
@@rachelcookswithlove How fantastic to have viewers throwing a backyard "Rachel Cooks with Love Puffy Taco Party!" I think that has to be a new UA-cam Milestone Landmark!! Blessings to all!
May I come to your house for dinner. Please O Please
@@janiceavila8985 me too please!
So cute I love this love my people we have the best food for reals
Hello Rachel you are so patient in your cooking show. You ought to think of selling a cook book for those of us who don't cook you make everything you make look good. Thank u I can always look you up for recipes. 🔥
Thank you so much, I hope to have one one day my friend. ❤👍
I agree a cook book would be a number one seller.
I grew up in San Antonio my whole life and I miss the women in my neighborhood who have since passed on who I was blessed to be taken care of as a young girl and was raised with wonderful food like your cooking made with love I miss them so much you can just taste the love in their food I hope that you pass down all your wonderful recipes to your children and your grandchildren God bless you God bless your family from my heart and soul from the Northeast side of San Antonio ☮️💟☯️🙏💋💯
The best part of the whole video was when you took your first bite! Thank you for this recipe, I've never heard of the San Antonio style before. Those tacos look absolutely delicious! 😋
Yes! I was thinking, poor Ron isn't going to get any of that one! Lol
If you ever do go to San Antonio, please go to Ray’s restaurant. You won’t be disappointed. Born and raised but now live in Austin Tx. Rachel is a great cook, love her videos ❤.
That's my favorite part, too!
They are super delicious.
@@janiemelgoza166I miss those tacos, I moved. Her cooking makes me miss those tacos.
Girl You did those Puffy Tacos 🌮 like a BOSS!!! They look delicious 🤤!!!
Thank you so much. ❤
So cute!! I love how she smiled throughout the cooking process! She really loves and enjoys cooking!!
If you pay attention to yourself, you will likely find that you are smiling right back at her. She really makes you feel like she is talking directly to you.
@@meandmyRC99 Agree❤
Thank you, Ms. Rachel. You do cook with love!! Thanks for showing us this delicious recipe and teaching us how to make puffy shells. My favorite and you have inspired me to try this. May God bless you always.❤️🙏
I moved to Austin from LA and I had never heard of puffy tacos! Omg. They look heavenly. Rachel, you've gotta go on TV with your own cooking show! Best looking and seasoned food that I've ever seen. And I'm sure Ron feels the same way!! ❤
My mom never taught me anything I was out of the house at 14. You're such a wonderful cook and I'm gonna try your dishes. Especially this one. You should have a recipe book out there I certainly would purchase it. I don't subscribe to many things but you have my vote.
I wish I could have helped you and showed you how to cook things. My mom showed me everything and I was cooking serious food before I was 12 years old. God rest my mom’s soul. I hope you learn new things every day and pass on to your family. It brings so much joy ❤️ God bless, and eat well!!!
I was not taught i watched and learned
You are the best!! Learning so much at the age of 74!!My grand children love all that you cook ☺️
Thank you so much for your comment, I'm so proud of you for wanting to learn how to cook, it's never too late to learn. I hope you enjoy your tacos, these are absolutely delicious. I'm sorry I was late to respond, but I have so many comments on all my videos that it's a little overwhelming sometimes, but I try to respond to all. Mery Christmas my friend, keep your head up and enjoy every day. Blessings. ❤
@@rachelcookswithlove Thank you Rachel for the reply and wishing you and your Ron,the very best,and a blessed Christmas 🌲☃️ and A prosperous New year ❤️!God bless you both 🙏
I love the way she explained everything piece by piece & Slowly looking forward to Learning more recipes from her!!
Same!
Me too ! I’m subscribing because I feel that I will learn so much from her ! She’s so pleasant to watch & listen to.😇
Looks delicious 😋 making me hungry 😀
Thank you for showing and explaining each and every step. You are a great teacher, Rachel, glad your video popped up. I subscribed!
Absolutely.
Everything you make is, out of this 🌎, keep it coming Rachel. You do cook with LOVE, Thanks again
Rachel, I started watching your cooking videos earlier today and now I’m addicted! I have watched you now for 4+ hours already today. 😊 You are awesome. I want to make everything that I’ve watched so far!
You literally made my mouth water during your taste test! I’ve been making tacos for my family for over forty years but have never heard of Puffy Tacos until today they look light and delicious! You are now my new favorite cooking channel, thank you for sharing your recipes and your calm and easy manner while you are cooking them.
Thank you so much.❤
Your food looks yummy
Thank you for representing San Antonio for us!! You did a amazing job!
Thank you so much my friend, I appreciate your comment. ❤️
Your welcome....you need to get on TV..you would be awesome..the people will love you...like Rachel Rey! 😀🙋💖
My husband and I love watching your channel and cooking your recipes. The biggest change in my cooking has been to use 2 spatulas (1 in each hand) when I cook. It’s so much easier and neater! Now, no matter what I cook, both hands work.❤❤
Rachael, I absolutely love watching you and hearing about "YOUR RON!" You make things look soooo easy. Thank you 😊 💓
Blessings,keep on
C00king please.
This was an amazing step by step and I love how detailed you are! You can tell you enjoy cooking and feeding the people you love❤️
Wow, haven't had a puffy taco in years! Can't wait to try this. Thank you .
Thank you so much.❤
Born and raised here in San Antonio. I always thought it was hard to make Puffy Tacos, I buy them from Mary Lou's the beef, but seeing you make them looks very easy. Thank you.
Yes, they are very easy.❤
Thank you so much,I live in Trinidad and I tried your soft tortillas,they were great,now I am going to try this .
Born and raised im SA as well. Please try Jacala on West blvd
@@dariusgreysun it’s so sad they burned down. 😢
Your videos are addicting. I started out watching a few just to learn more about Mexican recipes, now I cannot pass one of your videos without watching it. Your style and attention to detail are first rate. I agree with others, you need your own show! Thank you for all you share with us ❤️
Hi Rachel. I am from Kolkata, India and I love watching your channel. I made your puffy tacos yesterday. The family just loved it. They turned out so very well. Thank you so much for sharing all your good cooking with us. Really love your channel. You have picked the right name. One can see that you really cook with love.
Oh Rachel,you are an amazing teacher.
I ran across your video by chance and immediately you tugged at my heart strings because your voice is so pleasant,nice to the ear and you remind me of two of my favorite Aunties…and that’s BEFORE you even started cooking.
You explained each cooking step so clearly,you’re easy to follow. I have loved to cook since I was a child,my grandma passed several of her New Mexico recipes down to me. One of my favorite hobbies was to prepare Mexican food for my family and friends now due to severe arthritis I just cannot do it like I used to daily 😔 But a couple times a week I muster up my strength and with Gods help,go into my special culinary world where I am happiest. My family used to buy puffy tacos from a little stand in Southern California and we loved them.
I’ve never made them on my own but you have encouraged me to try my hand at them. Your method of cookies and your personality embodies soooo much more of our culture and heritage than you realize. Our ancestors are smiling down on you Queen…..and so is this 60 year old arthritic chef at heart that was so touched by your video♥️
Thank you so much for your sweet comment my friend, I absolutely love what I do, I hope you have better days. This is a delicious dish, and I make them often. Thank you for sharing your memories, take care my friend. ❤⚘
❤
You are so beautiful Rachel. I love how you cook and explain the process of each dish. Blessings to you and your Ron
Thank you so much. ❤
You make the best Mexican dishs on Earth 🌎 ❤️ your shows !!
This lady cooks with more love than I will EVER possess. My goodness…what a recipe! 😂
Rachel I just have to say I love watching you cook!! I love your personality and your spunk, such a good looking lady and the best personality ever! Thank you for inspiring and teaching us with such love ❤ Thank you Rachel 🙏💞Watching you lightens up my days and thank you too Ron!
You can tell she knows her dough- she definitely makes it look super easy- very personable!
U can tell she LOVES to cook! It comes through in her voice & smile! I'll bet her shorties were in the kitchen whenever she cooked when they were young. "Now u stay on that chair where u can c but not get hurt! Pay attention!" Great Teacher, lots of patients & clear instructions! 🌹💕
I wish I could give you more than one thumbs up! I’ve been wanting to know how to make the puffy tacos and here you are! The filling looks delicious, too. Thank you so much, Ron for letting your sweetie share this recipe!
I have two cooking challenges I want to master this year and both were the best when I visited San Antonio. One was puffy tacos and the other the best albondigas that I ever had. Thanks for getting me started with your awesome videos! You do a great job of step by step instructions that make these recipes achievable! Rachel thanks all your hard work!
You’re just a marvelous teacher, who loves her subject, and your Ron eats like a king! Thanks❤️👏
I just need to know is that masa flour masa cornmeal
Lucky man. ♥️
@@ray-bh2vy I'm not a cook but i see my wife do corn when she makes and Fries tortillas.
Thanks so much
@@ray-bh2vy You can Google Masa v Cornmeal. You know the consistency of cornmeal. Masa is the consistency of Wheat Flour. Like a Corn Flour rather than the more gritty Cornmeal.
Love ❤ the love you put into your cooking and step bt step instructions
Rachel!!! Made the Puffy Tacos last night and they were perfect!!! Thank you for the detailed, step by step directions!!!! I appreciate you taking the time!
I made these today with my own variations and I made flour tortillas, like Indian Fry Bread. I filled in a tortilla with the filling and added a lime cremosa! It’s so GOOD!!
Thank you Rachel! This was an amazing dish. Something different from regular tacos. I made some white and dark red kidney beans with some of the seasonings used for the chicken.
Sabrosos 😋🥰🌮
Rachael, I absolutely love watching you cook, you’re a fabulous teacher. Everything that you make looks so delicious, Rons a lucky recipient. Looking forward to many more cooking episodes.
You have an excellent cinematographer
You are amazing! You should be on the Food Network. You are my favorite lady
I love your cooking.
Cassandra Rattay
I just love watching you cook. You are so calm and explain things so clearly. I am so impressed that you do this all in a small space. I bet a lot of us have a kitchen like this which is very encouraging. You are so organized which is something I need to work on. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes with us.🥰
ANY TIME I'm wanting great food with authentic Mexican flair I always hit up your channel. This is definitely a keeper too! I love your chicken seasonings, I too much prefer well seasoned filling as opposed to bland and you never disappoint! I've been making puffy taco shells this way for 40 years for all my tacos as that's how my mama learned, taught me and how I taught my daughter's! They're absolutely the best! Thank you for this I can't wait to try these seasonings with a rotisserie chicken as I always have half a chicken left I never know what to do with!! God bless you!
I made these last night. Followed your perfect instructions to the letter. The whole family loved them. I crave puffy tacos. I live in San Antonio where there are alot of puffy taco plates at restaurants. These are soooo good. Don't have to pay $10 for a puffy taco plate anymore. Thank you so much. D
Raquelita, my Papa was from San Antonio and until tonight I have never heard nor seen anything about a Puffy Taco. As usual it looks really good, just like everything else you make. Thank you for sharing all your scrumptious recipes.
Bendiciones Rachel †
You just made me very hungry and it looks so delicious and it looks like it has a lot of flavor all the good flavors I'm going to try it
This sweet lady needs her own show on TV.
You are amazing sweet lady ! The addition to these delicious puffy tacos is your special salsa ! I'm a lifelong San Antonian, 81yrs, l still do some of my own cooking, will share with my children ! First time l see your post, l'm now your # 1 fan ! Blessings ❤🥀
This was the first video that drew me in. Have now watched several of her videos, and they all look delicious. Her careful instruction explains every step, so the viewer has added confidence in cooking and baking these dishes. Thanks for sharing the great recipes. Her pot roast is outstanding. 👍
Rachel you are a fantastic teacher! I loved your set up, explanation, pacing, and calm, friendly manner. You made this recipe look like any home cook could get good results. Thanks so much!
I learned so many new things and I am 80 years old, you can teach an old dog new tricks...thanks a million
Love love your recipes!! Just as our family loves it ❤ also! You are remarkable Rachel and Ron!!
Rachel..I love the way you cook and your personality captures your audience. I really enjoy watching you cook. I made pork tamales for the first time using your recipe and they turned out good. I need more practice but I got the jest . Being from San Antonio and living in Georgia, I’m excited to see some of the foods I ate as a child at home..
I just watched this and she has also made me homesick for the River City!
Rachel you have so much patience while you're cooking!!! I run around in my kitchen like a racehorse! 💖
Lol!! 🥰❤
Swoon!!!!! I learn so much from you, I'm 81 and still learning new things every day. Thank you for sharing your many skills. AND I love your garden.
You are an artist.
They look absolutely delicious!!! Thank you for the recipe...🌷
You are fun to watch. I'll make these tomorrow but honestly wish I could just have you make them for me! I'm a born and raised San Antonio girl!💗
Thank you, i love San Antonio, I really enjoyed making these, I remember being so hungry when I made this video, try to follow it exactly, I think you will love it, have a great weekend.❤
Hahaha I wish she could make mine too, she’s cute. ❤️
I'm a San Antonio girl,
also. I've enjoyed puffy tacos at Henry's & Jacalas
Married a Oklahoma fella and not is S.A. any more.
Yours puffy tacos do look delicious 🤩 Thanks for sharing.
@@rachelcookswithlove Ha ha ha! I thought Ron was not going to be getting any by the way you kept eating the first one!🤣
Oh my goodness Rachel you made me crave those tacos I’ve never had them.
Im definitely going to make them. Thank you😊 ❤️😋
They are super delicious, I hope you get to try them my friend. Thank you so much for your comment my friend. ❤
@@rachelcookswithlove hello Rachel! Just subscribed, I am new! Thank you. What would you say the temperature was of the oil when frying your puffy tacos
Native San Antonians love them. Its here where they originated. We also make the best barbeque
@@rosesilveira344 Yes!!🥰
I too did not take advantage of learning to cook when my mother and nannie were still here. I stumbled upon your page and made these tonight. I had to improvise the tortillas since those ingredients were not available to me (I stuck store bought flour tortillas in the pop up toaster oven until they puffed...I know that is probably a sin). I also roasted a poblano pepper to use as a topping for those who wanted it. I just want to thank you for putting these videos out. As everyone has said your nurturing manner and patient voice is like having you in the kitchen with us guiding us along. Thank you again.
You make everything you cook and create look So delicious ! Thank you Queen
not sure if it’s been said already but…….i put my chicken in my kitchen aide mixer and it shreds the chicken like magic!! you just made me order a tortilla press!! 👍
👍❤
I’ve always wanted to make my own tortillas and have a press! After watching this I’m going for it! Thank you soooo much!
I had tried making these today from a cookbook and I had ended up adding far more ingredients than were necessary and my dough turned to a web like texture in the fryer! This was so straightforward and I love how you described the texture the dough should be. I'll be making these later tonight!
Thank you for explaining step by step on cooking techniques for a beautiful puffy taco shell and flavorful filling ❤️
You are so welcome! Thank you so much.❤️
She’s so precise and educational on cooking .... better than Rachel ray!!
These look amazing! I'm a lover of Mexican cuisine but have never made my own tortillas! Thanks for breaking it down step-by-step. Gotta try this!❤
U are such a good teacher. U give measurements and u go slowly. I appreciate u
Love how u explained everything , I will making this … thanks for the recipe 😘
Those tacos looked so yummy and So puffy!
Can't wait to try your version. Looks delicious 😋😍
Hi Rachel, I’m definitely trying your recipes! I love how detailed and clearly you explain without shouting 😄. Thanks for sharing 😊💕
I’ve been searching for my Tex-Mex puffed tacos ever since I left San Antonio in 1970. Finally, I can just make them myself. Thank you!
Oh my gosh! I'm from San Antonio and I was born and raised there and I can't believe how many people don't know about puffy tacos! They are my favorite! Thank you so much! ❤️
Rachel, you are a wonderful teacher! More so, I feel the love and your passion for cooking! Thank you for sharing your gift!
These puffy tacos looks so delicious. I can’t wait to try them.
I can't wait to make these puffy tacos
We need smell-a-vision! ❤ I have loved puffy tacos since the mid 1970’s. They were my favorite thing to order at El Chico in Fort Worth, along with a side of guacamole. You’ve encouraged me to try making them myself! I enjoy watching you cook home style, so much. Thank You!
What a clean kitchen. Who doesn’t learn from you well puffy she’ll makes it better .love your cooking spoon: what a neatness. Pleasure to watch your recipes
Yes she does i would like to ask pretty lady how does she keep her electric burners so clean lookin.
Thank you so much. ❤
The BEST PART of your video is watching you eat & enjoy them!!!
So far, your technique is the best one on HOW TO MAKE THE PUFFY TACO SHELLS!!!
Gonna try this VERY SOON! 💖
Thank you so much, be sure not to get your dough too wet or it'll break apart, follow directions carefully and please ket me know how they turn out my friend, blessings. ❤
@@rachelcookswithlove Yes! I will let you know how they turn out just as soon as I try this out!
Keep me in your prayers! 😂
She sounds like a very sweet person. I love the way she gives us her recipes. Thank you Rachel. I'm Puerto Rican and I live in California. G. B.
I’m with you, Rachel! I can’t stand bland food…..and I’m a gringa! That’s why I love your recipes so much. I know I can follow them exactly and don’t have to riff on them or guess about anything and I know the food will be to my liking. ❤️
Rachel, I’ve been watching your videos and your just to cute. I’m from San Antonio and truly enjoy cooking Mexican food. Your a great teacher and you have some great recipes. Thanks and God bless.
Thank you so much for your sweet comment, I appreciate your support my friend. ❤⚘
I can’t wait to make these. With your tutorial instructions these are going to be great. Thanks for sharing👩🏽🍳
They are better than San Antonio puffy tacos. Thank you. Very delicious ! Tomatillo sauce is magnificent!
I made these last night with some leftover brisket and when I tell you they are perfection Omg just amazing !!! The recipe is just perfection!!! I will forever make them this way thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you for letting us have a precise explanation how you do things. I have to do this taco!
I am always freezing stock too. I measure 2 cups per ziploc baggie so I always know how much I need. I squeeze all the air out of the ziploc, then lay them flat on a sheet pan in the freezer until they are frozen. Then I can stack them in a neat pile in the freezer once completely frozen. Thanks for this yummy recipe. I am going to try this one, and also your flour tortilla recipe. We love them at my house but I have never made them. Cant wait. I also saved the Charro beans (pressure cooker recipe)! Im starting to sound like a stalker. LOL Im not, just love watching people who cook very well do their thing! Have a great weekend
Thank you so much for your sweet comment, I'm like you, always freezing stock. The puffy tacos are delicious, be careful not to get your dough too wet or it'll break up on you, keep it firm. I use less baking powder and water here in Ohio than I do in Texas (half less baking powder here in Ohio) I guess it's the heat and humidity in Texas. I hope you get to try the charro beans my friend, they are delicious. Thank you so much for your sweet comment, blessings. ❤
I love Rachael! I love all of her recipes! She is always spot on. I am obsessed with her salzbury steaks! Can wait to make the puffy tacos!

Great job. My family just discovered Mexican Food and we love it. We are in Toronto. We had pollo soup and tostados. AMAZING. THANK YOU FOR TEACHING US TO COOK SUCH A LARGE VARIETY OF FOODS. YOUR RON IS A LUCKY GUY. ❤❤
I love this recipe! I’m trying it this weekend.
I have never seen Puffy Tacos. They do look wonderful. I can't wait to give them a try 👍🤗
I will try to make these puffy tacos . They look delicious 😀
I just love your videos. There is nothing better than fresh made, authentic Mexican meals.
Thank you so much Gail, you are right about that, I appreciate your comment.❤
Hi hope you're having a good time today
Ms. Rachel ,
This recipe for puffy tacos is excellent, I love them, but I can tell you, not every restaurant that has puffy tacos in their menu is not really puffy because they are disgusting and doesn’t even puffed like yours . I celebrate you . Thank you for your dedication, because you show love for your meals and that has to say a lot. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
God Bless you 🙏
Wow, that looks wonderful, Rachel! Thank you for sharing your recipe. I am going to try to make them. My masa skills are pretty good with tamales, but not so much with tortillas, but I will try again. We had puffy tacos at our Old Mexico Restaurant in Corpus Christi but they have been gone for awhile now and most places don't even have puffy tacos anymore. So, I am glad to have this recipe.
Thank you, Rachel for the tutorial on Puffy Tacos. I'm from San Antonio; but I live in Atlanta. I have shared my Mexican Food with my Friends here. They are going to love these. I miss them sooo much.
Thanks again for sharing your lovely recipe.

I'm from Texas also but live in Atlanta. I miss everything about Texas especially the food
Oh my goodness! I’m going to make these. I’m sure my family will love them. Also, I just want to say you are so beautiful. Thanks for the recipe.
Hi Rachael, I definitely will try your puffy tacos! You always make everything look so easy. I like how you show and explain everything so nice and clear, and when you taste test, lol, it never fails, you make it sound like it is just so delicious! Makes my mouth water. lol
I truly enjoy your videos.
Thank you Rachel for mentioning San Antonio!!! Our Puffy Taco history goes way back to 1950's when Ray's'Puffy Taco was invented, officially by Ray!!! The tradition is still going strong at the same location!!! We have the same vintage Jukebox, back then it cost a nickel per record. I'm so proud you're making them & l know they're just as delicious!!! God bless you & your Ron ❤🌮
