Tacos

Tonight for supper we had beef tacos. Rather than making them from ground beef like we usually do, today we used the same kind of roast beef as I wrote about last week with the wine. Once again we put it in a slow cooker with rice and allowed it to cook all day. After a few hours, we added some fajita spice and jalapeno peppers to the meat, and allowed the meat to absorb the awesome flavors. All together, I would say that the meat probably cooked for almost if not ten hours.

Now one thing I love to have on my taco is sour cream. I think it's the perfect dressing to temper the spiciness of the meat. However, like many things here, sour cream can be difficult to acquire. Yet despite seeming out of luck, it turns out that making sour cream is actually extremely easy. All it is is heavy cream, lime juice, and vinegar; items which are all easily found in town.With that, we made our own sour cream, and it was actually pretty good. Not as thick as store bough, the flavor was relatively the same. Altogether, the meal was pretty good, perhaps there will be picks when we have more tomorrow?
