View full detailsIn the heart of Mexico, the traditional comal plays a vital role in Mexican cuisine. These unique cookware items, crafted from volcanic stone, have been used for centuries to cook a variety of delicious dishes. Understanding how to properly use and care for your comal is not only essential for achieving mouthwatering flavors but also for preserving its longevity. In this article, we will explore the art of using comals and the crucial process of curing them, highlighting their significance in traditional Mexican cooking.
Utilizing Comals for Authentic Mexican Cuisine:
Comals are versatile and indispensable tools in Mexican kitchens. These circular, flat griddles are primarily used for cooking tortillas, but they also excel at roasting chiles, toasting spices, and even searing meats and vegetables. The volcanic stone material used in crafting comals ensures even heat distribution, resulting in perfectly cooked and flavorful dishes.
Curing Comals: Preserving Quality and Flavor:
Curing a comal is a crucial step that enhances its performance and longevity. This process involves creating a protective seasoning layer, which prevents food from sticking and imparts a rich depth of flavor to your dishes.
Here's a step-by-step guide to curing your volcanic stone comal:
Begin by washing the comal with soap and water to remove any impurities.
Thoroughly dry the comal with a clean towel, ensuring no moisture remains.
Place the comal on a stovetop over medium-high heat, allowing it to heat up.
Turn off the heat and apply a thin layer of vegetable oil all over the comal's surface.
Allow the comal to cool down to room temperature naturally.
Repeat the oil application and cooling process two or three more times, building up multiple layers of oil.
Once several layers of oil have been applied, let the comal cool down completely.
Congratulations! Your volcanic stone comal is now cured and ready to be used.
Importance of Curing:
Curing a comal is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it creates a natural non-stick surface, allowing food to be cooked and flipped effortlessly. Secondly, the seasoning layer enhances the flavors of the dishes, adding a distinct taste that comes from cooking on a well-cured comal. Lastly, the curing process protects the comal from rusting and helps maintain its quality over time, ensuring it will continue to serve you well in your culinary adventures
Derived from the Nahuatl term "comalli," the word "comal" has become synonymous with a traditional cooking tool used as a griddle or flat pan in Mexico and Central America....
