    Opuntia and food cacti recipes

    Dont use the old big pads. Use the thin new fresh green growth are less fibery and more crisp...keep that in mind when making nopalitos i boil them with this seasoning and it may also be kade on ghe grill but i prefer my method for starters to get the taste and the grilling for more experienced nopal eaters

    Opuntia and food cacti recipes

    Thats Aztec style gourmet. We make a fresh salsa salsa with the opuntia pads. I have a thread on this salad that is traditionally eaten in mexico..i basically de-spine the cactus and cut it, wash it, then boil it with an onion and or a garlic and enough salt depending on the serving size. i serve the choped nopalitos with fresh diced tomatoes, cilantro, onions, fresh diced geen peppers, and salt to taste, and one super thinly minced fresh garlic could also be added for a more robust flavor. Serve like a dip for salsa with chips.

    True pachanoi or PC pachanoi?

    On true pachanoi the spines point downward, on the pc they point upward.
  9. I started these seeds a lil after I received them. They are super viable, I just wanted to start this thread for anyone that has started his back cross im not sure if I have it backwards or not I gave the label away. I also have 3 lophs in the same container.

    I d? please

    I obtained this cutting as peruvianus. What do u think.
  20. tizocAu

    I d? please

    Zelly so do u think she looks kimnach. The original owner labeled it peruvianus but he got it from his neighbors yard. They were just Tenants. They didn't have any information. Either way kimnach does look peruvianus. I'll keep the name lime jello.

    I d? please

    I knew he was gonna say that.
  22. tizocAu

    I d? please

    U have one of those zelly? So does it or doesn't it? Close enough for me.
  23. That look like a peruvianus I have. It has dark spines and orange redish colored tips
  24. tizocAu

    I d? please

    Well the label for this one originally is lime jello peruvianus. But it's a debatable label since it looks a bit pachanoi...I'll sey it's a hybrid more so in the pachanoid side.. and less in the macro side.
