Taco-test #1 of the 'oat tortilla' experiment:
-
Backstory:
https://piefed.social/c/cooking/p/1453727/making-simple-oat-wraps-from-scratch-recipe-and-notesHomemade oat-tortillas formed in to tacos, then air-fried a bit to firm and crisp-up ‘em up. Absolutely delicious, but also proved to be one of Hercules’ fabled labors in order to get 'em right.
FILLINGS:
- smoky kidney-bean stew, slow-simmered
- fresh sriracha
- sliced green cabbage as the base
TASTE:
Absolutely crispy, crunchy loverly, but this is just WAY too much work, mon’!KEY CONCLUSIONS:
- Absolutely, positively, DO NOT delude yourself that a general-mesh sifter is enough to sift your oat-flour. No-- you’ll absolutely need a fine-flour sifter in order to even begin a proper trial of this approach.
- More to say in future, probably upsetting the wide-world of bread & pasta lovers, but…
Come on, there are tastier cereals than oats. Namely rye.

Kidney bean stew
Cabbage
British tacos? Cause the only thing Taco here is Sriracha.
Sriracha is not taco either, it’s Thai.
-
not mexican but isnt cabbage frequently used?.
That one I can kinda forgive, it holds up better and the slight lemony acidic flavor compared to lettuce is better

At least it’s a hot sauce.

You seem to be English-adjacent (hue hue), so I can safely assume you’re indeed more familiar with horse feed than with rye. Rye results in cookery that’s rather heavy but tasty. Personally I prefer mixed-grain bread, as rye alone is so dense that a couple slices can make me lay down for an hour.

Oh, rabbits!
I got nothing against good ol’ rye. (other than Madonna)Btw, what does “hue hue” indicate, as an expression?

‘Hue hue’ is basically a chuckle, often a cheeky one.
