I think I know what Callyann is talking about with the tortillas having a tang. Traditional corn tortillas are made with masa, which has been nixtamalized. Meaning the maize was soaked and cooked in an alkali solution. It's a traditional corn preparation method.
Yeah, I've never been a fan of masa myself. It also looks like they were at best just steamed, toasting them helps as well. As much as I tend to prefer flour tortillas, fish tacos have to be corn or they don't taste right to me.

@@michaelhoward142 I know you were being pedantic, my point is that most people do not refer to a tortilla, especially a corn one, as a "flatbread". Is it one? Sure. But if you asked for "bread" with a taco, you're gonna get bread. MAYBE a flour tortilla if you're lucky, but most likely actual bread.
I don't know...we have no idea of how that "corn bread" actually tastes.

I wouldn’t say those were very traditional. No offense. But Barbacoa, El Pastor, Tripa, Barria, Carne Asada, carnitas. Those to me are more traditional style tacos.

The line from the kitchen counter goes out the front door and snakes around the corner of La Luz Del Dia and all along one side of the Plaza de la Raza at the south end of Olvera Street. All down the middle of Olvera Street are free standing little shops which were originally built to house atheletes for the 1932 Olympics. The lady at the back of the kitchen is making fresh tortillas by hand while the lady at the counter takes your order for Plata de Carnitas and takes a murderous looking meat cleaver to a hunk of cooked pork shoulder, places a fresh tortilla on your plate, hacks off just enough pork, ladles up some guacamole and hands you the plate. You pay for the plate and a bottle (Dos Equis) or can (Tecate) of beer and turn around to the table upon which is a massive bowl of fresh salsa and another smaller one of nopales. You fill paper Dixie-cups with both. Now it's out the side door for the patio and lunch. Or dinner. Sadly, they don't do breakfast. For that, you need La Golondrina a few steps north. Or Mr. Churro which used to be up the stairs back in the 1960s, but is now on the other side of Olvera Street. If you can get the churros still hot out of the oil -- that's best, otherwise don't bother. La Golondrina does great huevos rancheros. Then there are the tostadas and tacos at Henry's in Studio City with the freshest tasting corn tortillas ever. And my favourite salsa. On the other hand, SoCal is too damn hot. I envy you your cold and rain. Sorry to go on.
The "funny" taste in the corn tortillas is the nixtamalization process that brings out all the nutrients in the corn. It was never brought to Europe when corn was brought so most people arent accustomed to it.
Seán... Seán... that pronunciation of "pollo" just hurt every single Spanish-speaker in the world, simultaneously. Even people like me, who speak English but took some Spanish classes in school, felt the pain of the way you said that. How *very* dare you 😂
People forget that just basic salsa and corn chips are a whole grain snack with a serving of veg. And, yeah, too much oil fat, but overall it's really pretty healthy, especially with fresh pico de gallo. And good!
This is the Paulo taco. Paulo's been missing for a while glad to see he turned up for the shoot! 😂 If you all ever come to Chicago I'll show you some good Mexican food and other really good food!
Callyann, I don't know what you said but when you hit that high note on the first taco, both of my dogs ran into the room with their heads tilted to the side and stared at the computer. 🤣
Dad wants to know what kind of tortillas those were. He said they didn't look like crunchy corn tortillas or the soft flour torlillas which are usually white and lightly toasted.
Cool video, I love hearing you all speak so positively about Mexican food, makes me so proud! 🇲🇽 😁 but I would love for you all to some day try Mexican street food, particularly my personal favorite, elotes. Highly recommended, will change your life!
I frequent an elotes food truck outside of a Fiesta Mart here in NW Houston that I drive 30 miles to hit up once a week. Even bad elotes is good elotes. 😅
at taco places here in Tx, to sub out the corn for flour tortillas, you order them "gringo" - a somewhat derogatory term for US Americans. can also be used to specify low spice level
It's kind of like saying "save the whales" - you're (hopefully) not saying screw all the other animals and just save whales.....In the same spirit, celebrating Taco Tuesday doesn't mean you should deny yourself their yumptious goodness on other days 😊
As a guy from the Southwest US and visits Mexico a number of times a year… this completely reminds me of Chevy Chase in “The Three Amigos” trying to eat tacos in early 1900s Mexico and asking if they “Have anything besides Mexican food” since he keeps dropping the fillings…but I loved this Try!
@@davidray6962 My place makes amazing chicken tacos, on which I use their fresh salsa and green taco sauce (which is salsa verde, but I didn't want to confuse the issue.) Their brown taco sauce is good too, but a little spicy for my tastes.
Okay, try it with only mushrooms... and of course queso blanco, and cilantro, and grilled onions. So not just 'only' mushroom, but no meat at all and mostly mushrooms - no tomatoes and I don't even spice it with anything. I special order mushroom tacos when I can. Excellent choice.
Okay, Californian born, bred and residing here, so you guys are right in my food wheelhouse now. I still like Callyann despite her not having developed the taste for a corn tortilla (she'd probably like a flour tortilla better). When I saw "traditional tacos" in the title, I was like "WHICH KIND of traditional tacos?" People don't realize that there are multiple different sub-genres of Mexican food. All I can say is, come here to LA, Tryers, and I'll take you around for a mutifarious tacos/comida Mexicana tour that'll knock you on your arses!
I grew up in South West Az eating authentic Mexican homemade tacos. None of these were it. If these people ever had authentic tacos they'd never look back.
Dog whistle squeal aside, I agree a bit with Callyann about soft corn tortillas, they're not my favorite and the tang and likelihood of it just falling apart is a bit off-putting. Very rarely, though, I will eat a street taco on a corn tortilla and it just tastes amazing
You make me laugh, because from my apartment there are fifteen different Mexican places within walking distance. You have to remember that for me walking distance is about 2 miles. Several of them are really authentic. The nasty looking food trucks that make the best Mexican food. One is just a shack on the side of a Shell station that makes only home-made tamales and refried beans. The tamales are to die for, made by two abuelas fresh every day. They start serving them at lunch and are often sold out long before dinner. $2 each, and I can only eat about four before falling asleep for a day.
@@tarmaque the best places around here to get tamales, is generally from a trunk of a car either at a Wal-Mart or a Food City. And you never get tacos from a food truck that looks pretty. Just like other Mexican food, the place has to look a little run down. Even better if they only accept cash.
@@caseyontiveros2776 Eggzactly. My ex wife used to buy tamales from a woman who cleaned rooms at the hospital where she worked. ¢.50 each back in the 90's. You don't see people selling them out of cars much around here, but best practice is to make friends with someone you work with or lives next door. As for taco places, it varies. The Portland Metro area has become such a Mecca of food truck culture that it's hard to tell some days. However I've been going to "Super Taco Express" for almost 40 years now and it's always been pretty good. It's a dingy store-front place that only misses being a taco truck in that it doesn't have wheels. I watched the guy's son going from running the till standing on a box when I was in high school to the same kid running the whole place. It got a cosmetic upgrade a few years ago, but the menu is the same. That said there's a local chain running out of an old Taco Time building (I think there's five of them total) that is pretty authentic. You can tell because it's usually full of Hispanic people, they play Spanish language football games on the TV (soccer) or telenovelas, and they will serve you real menudo and whole fried fish if you order that. Nice people. Good food. Don't use the brown taco sauce unless you like pain. Tasty tasty pain.
Everything is a taco in my house. Flour or corn tortillas.. never store bought crunchy shells. I make barbacoa, birria, pork carnitas, pork adobada, chicken adobada... but also potato, egg and cheese, or pork chorizo tacos (with flour tortillas) for breakfast are so good too. I usually eat my tacos with salsa verde and pico de gallo, lime, cotija cheese, and sometimes guacamole. Tacos are the best! I made pork carnitas last night.. so good.😍😋🌮
@@cherylflam3250 Yes there is a big difference. Some people think store bought taco seasoning is the best... that stuff is not allowed in my kitchen. lol
Yeah, and for that very reason I've never been a fan of hard shell tacos. If I'm served them somewhere where I also have a plate, I will crush them up and mix everything together in a taco salad.
I love tacos, I loved the episode and turns out...I love Nichole O'Connor! This is the first time Ive seen her without her glasses! Her eyes...I melted. Not that she's isn't a beauty with them. OK, I'll stop. Carry on TRY folks.

I think I know what Callyann is talking about with the tortillas having a tang. Traditional corn tortillas are made with masa, which has been nixtamalized. Meaning the maize was soaked and cooked in an alkali solution. It's a traditional corn preparation method.
It's the same process that's used to make hominy. Not surprisingly, hominy also shows up in traditional Mexican dishes like pozole and menudo.
Dried kernels are cooked and steeped in an alkaline solution, usually water and food-grade lime (calcium hydroxide).

@@noname-wo8zp, Flour not flower.

I've said it before, and it's truer than ever; Callyann is a treasure.
Edit: No chorizo?
Absolutely nothing traditional about these tacos! Always fun to watch you Try Ireland 👌🤣
The "funny" taste in the corn tortillas is the nixtamalization process that brings out all the nutrients in the corn. It was never brought to Europe when corn was brought so most people arent accustomed to it.
I love Callyann, that is all.
Seán... Seán... that pronunciation of "pollo" just hurt every single Spanish-speaker in the world, simultaneously. Even people like me, who speak English but took some Spanish classes in school, felt the pain of the way you said that. How *very* dare you 😂
Talk Spanish for over 30 years. It never stops being painful
Even the way they say taco is hard to listen to.
Man I didnt even take Spanish in school and that hurt my ears. Reminds me of hearing Irish people pronounce chipotle as chipawtull
Nicole without her glasses? Beautiful inside and out! Keep on TRYin' !!!
People forget that just basic salsa and corn chips are a whole grain snack with a serving of veg. And, yeah, too much oil fat, but overall it's really pretty healthy, especially with fresh pico de gallo. And good!
Watching Daragh absolutely devour those tacos was amazing. I was raised in the southwestern US, and grew up on all sorts of wonderful Mexican food
This is the Paulo taco. Paulo's been missing for a while glad to see he turned up for the shoot! 😂 If you all ever come to Chicago I'll show you some good Mexican food and other really good food!
Callyann, I don't know what you said but when you hit that high note on the first taco, both of my dogs ran into the room with their heads tilted to the side and stared at the computer. 🤣
Dad wants to know what kind of tortillas those were. He said they didn't look like crunchy corn tortillas or the soft flour torlillas which are usually white and lightly toasted.
Corn mesa flour that is given some water and pressed in a torilla cast iron device then steamed or warmed. This is normal around here.
Comes from the Aztecs.
Pagan and Nicole pairing was a delight.
Two pales goddesses, no waiting!
You had me at *TACOS* 🌮😍
I love Irish people! I live over their for over 3 years and a half ! Everybody was awesome! Miss them!
Cool video, I love hearing you all speak so positively about Mexican food, makes me so proud! 🇲🇽 😁 but I would love for you all to some day try Mexican street food, particularly my personal favorite, elotes. Highly recommended, will change your life!
I frequent an elotes food truck outside of a Fiesta Mart here in NW Houston that I drive 30 miles to hit up once a week. Even bad elotes is good elotes. 😅
at taco places here in Tx, to sub out the corn for flour tortillas, you order them "gringo" - a somewhat derogatory term for US Americans. can also be used to specify low spice level
We need to dismiss the dangerous concept that there's just one acceptable day for tacos. Tacos, nature's most perfect food, are ideal for any day!!!
I just go with "Taco Today." It's served me well so far.
It's kind of like saying "save the whales" - you're (hopefully) not saying screw all the other animals and just save whales.....In the same spirit, celebrating Taco Tuesday doesn't mean you should deny yourself their yumptious goodness on other days 😊
Anything that makes Callyann go supersonic has to be good.
This 👏🏼😂
You can double up the corn tortilla if it is thin, so they don’t fall apart.
As a guy from the Southwest US and visits Mexico a number of times a year… this completely reminds me of Chevy Chase in “The Three Amigos” trying to eat tacos in early 1900s Mexico and asking if they “Have anything besides Mexican food” since he keeps dropping the fillings…but I loved this Try!
Hmm... Makes me think I'm going to the local taqueria for dinner tonight.
BTW, my order is usually carne asada with salsa verde.
@@davidray6962 My place makes amazing chicken tacos, on which I use their fresh salsa and green taco sauce (which is salsa verde, but I didn't want to confuse the issue.) Their brown taco sauce is good too, but a little spicy for my tastes.
If I didn't have to go to work I would too. Buche and lengua are my two go to tacos. Of course need some salss verde.
Been watching for years and have to say, 'NEVER, EVER, EVER will I go vegetarian. Love you guys. Thanks for all the fun over the years.
In my 51 years on this Earth, I've never yet had mushrooms in my taco meat. And now...I really REALLY want mushrooms in my taco meat.
When you make it at home you can add mushrooms
Okay, try it with only mushrooms... and of course queso blanco, and cilantro, and grilled onions. So not just 'only' mushroom, but no meat at all and mostly mushrooms - no tomatoes and I don't even spice it with anything. I special order mushroom tacos when I can. Excellent choice.
@@dchall8 sounds interesting.
Okay, Californian born, bred and residing here, so you guys are right in my food wheelhouse now. I still like Callyann despite her not having developed the taste for a corn tortilla (she'd probably like a flour tortilla better). When I saw "traditional tacos" in the title, I was like "WHICH KIND of traditional tacos?" People don't realize that there are multiple different sub-genres of Mexican food. All I can say is, come here to LA, Tryers, and I'll take you around for a mutifarious tacos/comida Mexicana tour that'll knock you on your arses!
I grew up in South West Az eating authentic Mexican homemade tacos. None of these were it. If these people ever had authentic tacos they'd never look back.
I was actually eating some homemade soft shell tacos while watching this. Made my dinner taste even better, thanks Tryers!
Teeling, toothpaste, and tacos. What a week lads
The gamut of T's!
Dog whistle squeal aside, I agree a bit with Callyann about soft corn tortillas, they're not my favorite and the tang and likelihood of it just falling apart is a bit off-putting. Very rarely, though, I will eat a street taco on a corn tortilla and it just tastes amazing
As someone who lives in a city with over 100 taquerias: Unless the corn tortilla is made in front of you.. go with flour.
Nice catch Dermot.
You know you guys didn't have to put "Traditional" in the title! lol 😂😉
Daragh eating a taco is not only frightening, but inescapable. I could not look away 🙀
I'm going to go to the corner and get some tacos. Or go to the next corner and get other tacos.
You make me laugh, because from my apartment there are fifteen different Mexican places within walking distance. You have to remember that for me walking distance is about 2 miles. Several of them are really authentic. The nasty looking food trucks that make the best Mexican food. One is just a shack on the side of a Shell station that makes only home-made tamales and refried beans. The tamales are to die for, made by two abuelas fresh every day. They start serving them at lunch and are often sold out long before dinner. $2 each, and I can only eat about four before falling asleep for a day.
@@tarmaque the best places around here to get tamales, is generally from a trunk of a car either at a Wal-Mart or a Food City.
And you never get tacos from a food truck that looks pretty. Just like other Mexican food, the place has to look a little run down. Even better if they only accept cash.
@@caseyontiveros2776 Eggzactly. My ex wife used to buy tamales from a woman who cleaned rooms at the hospital where she worked. ¢.50 each back in the 90's. You don't see people selling them out of cars much around here, but best practice is to make friends with someone you work with or lives next door.
As for taco places, it varies. The Portland Metro area has become such a Mecca of food truck culture that it's hard to tell some days. However I've been going to "Super Taco Express" for almost 40 years now and it's always been pretty good. It's a dingy store-front place that only misses being a taco truck in that it doesn't have wheels. I watched the guy's son going from running the till standing on a box when I was in high school to the same kid running the whole place. It got a cosmetic upgrade a few years ago, but the menu is the same.
That said there's a local chain running out of an old Taco Time building (I think there's five of them total) that is pretty authentic. You can tell because it's usually full of Hispanic people, they play Spanish language football games on the TV (soccer) or telenovelas, and they will serve you real menudo and whole fried fish if you order that. Nice people. Good food. Don't use the brown taco sauce unless you like pain. Tasty tasty pain.
Sean, Colin, and Dermot....comedy trio :)
The Gaelic Stooges!
Nichole looks amazing..never seen her without her glasses before...I wish I could have half the energy that Cally has
Everything is a taco in my house. Flour or corn tortillas.. never store bought crunchy shells. I make barbacoa, birria, pork carnitas, pork adobada, chicken adobada... but also potato, egg and cheese, or pork chorizo tacos (with flour tortillas) for breakfast are so good too. I usually eat my tacos with salsa verde and pico de gallo, lime, cotija cheese, and sometimes guacamole. Tacos are the best! I made pork carnitas last night.. so good.😍😋🌮
Let me know when you’re making them again…I’ll be over !!! 🌵😎
@@cherylflam3250 😁🌹
@@diavolaangelica Most people have never had authentic tacos..my nephews wife is from Mexico…so I know the difference !!
@@cherylflam3250 Yes there is a big difference. Some people think store bought taco seasoning is the best... that stuff is not allowed in my kitchen. lol
That's the way we get tacos from actual Mexican immigrants, build your own!!
I luv calliannes squirrel impression
Now try soft tacos with flour tortillas.
Thank you Dermot, never change :P
if there's one guarantee in life it's that hard shell tacos will always fall apart when eating
Yeah, and for that very reason I've never been a fan of hard shell tacos. If I'm served them somewhere where I also have a plate, I will crush them up and mix everything together in a taco salad.
That’s why I like wrapping the crispy shell in a flour tortilla. All the shards are kept in check.
Rarely happens if you eat them right.
I love tacos, I loved the episode and turns out...I love Nichole O'Connor! This is the first time Ive seen her without her glasses! Her eyes...I melted. Not that she's isn't a beauty with them. OK, I'll stop. Carry on TRY folks.
I prefer the flour taco shells 😋 the corn ones remind me too much of the school tacos i had as a kid years ago. 🌮🌮🌮 💚🤍🧡☘️☘️
I like burritos but soft shell tacos are good as well. Good video thanks everyone 👍🏻
Bread? Bread???
4:04 Daragh is a magician for how quickly he packed that taco away lol!
Somebody forgot to tell them you are supposed to use 2 tortillas....
Dermots deep voice would be great for radio or as a narrator on Audible
