Mexican Struggle Food: What We Ate When There Was Nothing Left (The Mexican Way)

Learn the practical secrets behind old-fashioned Mexican cooking, from masa and beans to low-waste kitchen habits: https://steveharlan.gumroad.com/l/mexican-way-cookbook I grew up learning that a stack of tortillas, a pot of beans, salt, and a little leftover oil could become dinner when there was almost nothing left. In this video, I revisit the humble foods my family relied on and rate each one for cost, how filling it was, and how it actually tasted. I start with the simplest meal of all: a warm tortilla folded with a little salt, cooked on the comal with whatever fat we had. I also share the memories and practical habits behind these foods—the meals that kept us going when times were tight. #MexicanFood #StruggleFood #TraditionalMexicanCooking #MexicanRecipes #FoodHistory
