I did try a third recipe in this cookbook, Empanadas de Queso, however, no matter what I tried I could not get the dough to come together. The masa harina flour I used was yellow corn and I believe that was the problem – it needed to be white masa harina. I am going to have to do some searching to see if I can find the white masa harina and try the recipe again.
Overall I would recommend for people to get The Mexican Home Kitchen. It has so many great recipes to bring Mexico to your own kitchen through soups, main dishes, salsa, sides, desserts and even drinks!
