      My grandmother showed me how to make a flour-and-water paste to glue pictures of girls (which I cut from newspaper advertisements for our local department store) onto cardboard (either a cereal box or cardboard from a new shirt; I used both for projects) to make paper dolls. My grandmother had learned the same some 55 or 60 years earlier.

  • @j.l.emerson592
    @j.l.emerson592 3 місяці тому +28

    There's only one thing that I would change/add... I would season the paste that you use to seal the flautas. Salt, pepper, garlic (SPG) is what I'd use. It adds another layer of flavor.

    Great video I like the options you offer, from softening the tortillas in the microwave or on a griddle, to shallow frying or baking the flautas, the consume salsa, to freezing some flautas before cooking for future meals. Plus your flour slurry glue trick.

    Wow I love it. I simply make a taco ànd use a ton of tooth picks. I gotta, I just gotta use this method. I really can't thank you enough. MY MIND IS BLOWN. Yes to the cheese and green onion. 😊 I just canned liked 20lbs of beef - I'm certainly going to use that too, I have pork and chicken canned. Easy peezy- quick! I need something simply because I'm dead on my feet when I get home. I want to get off of the as fast as I can, into my pajamas and snooze - till the next day and start it all over again. Oooh I'm learning a lot today. Yeah I'm 57 and learning what I would have wanted to know YEARS ago! I'm excited to try the paste and bo tooth pick.. Thank you again. 😊

    Hi, I am a new subscriber! Just the other day my husband was telling me he felt like eating flautas, but he didn’t know how to make them (my husband is the cook of the family). I am fully awake and it’s 1:21am. I was surfing through UA-cam and came upon your channel. I saw flautas and said to myself you need to watch this! I did and I am glad that I did. My husband is sleeping soundly so I will share your channel with him tomorrow! Your flautas look delicious 😋!! Yummy!

    I made the potato flautas tonight. I added diced onion in them. Fabulous! I baked them which was good but I’ll deep fry them next time. The clincher was that my son-in-law loved them. I forgot about the flour paste but I won’t forget next time. So yummy! Thanks.

    Can I just say I have always struggled with how to keep a taquito tortilla from cracking/tearing and also how to keep them together without toothpicks. I have been cooking since I was a kid with my Mickey Mouse Cookbook in the 80's. I am 54 now. Your method fixed both of my issues and today was the first time I was able to do it successfully.

    I've watched a lot of your videos and I've made at least six of them to great success but this one was a game changer for me! It's sooooo easy and I think I've made it even easier. I hate the smell of oil that's left in the house after frying so I used a little more oil when preparing the tortillas and then I cooked them in the air fryer and - it worked! AMAZING! Thanks so much for all of the variations as well. The green salsa recipe is a bonus but I'm going to stick with lazy at least for now and use store bought. Thank you so much!

    ***I have a "cheat" for beef Taquitos/flautas/chimis and share it towards the end!!!***
    My dad and I would make 300 Taquitos every Christmas Eve. Man, how I wish I knew about the microwave corn tortillas cheat, the flour paste, and the oven method!!!! My husband, daughter's and grands have taken over the making because my passed away, but I know he'll be watching and saying, Wow, wish we knew about this method 30 yrs ago, ha!!
    Also, I want to share another "cheat method." If you eant quick beef Taquitos/Flautas, get a few cans of roast beef in gravy (Dinty Moore is 1 of the makers, but they have other brands, too) from the grocery store in the tuna/shredded chicken section. My dad would use it because it was quicker, and then we'd use the can chicken and only have to roast a big pork butt during our busy Christmas season. We loved making beef, chicken, and pork Taquitos for our family Christmas Eve party. My daughter and I started making mini quick bean flautas/chimis by using won ton wraps, we use an egg wash to seal those, but I might try the flour paste and see if it works because it's cheaper!!!
