Place steak and marinade in a ziplock bag and make sure all air is removed. Marinate for a minimum of 4 hrs.; ideally until the next day. Cook on a hot, seasoned grill until about medium rare. Slice against the grain and serve on a salad. 2 tbsp. cane sugar 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1 tsp. whole cumin seeds, toasted, then ground 4 garlic cloves, minced 1 jalapeno chili pepper, seeded and minced 1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup) Salt and pepper

2 Fish Tacos with Chimichurri Sauce 1 1/2 lbs. fresh cod 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped 1 lime, juiced and zested 2 garlic cloves, chopped 3 tbsp. olive oil 6 peppercorns, crushed Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 20 mins. Heat the salt block, starting at low for 5 mins., then medium for 5 mins. and so on until you reach high heat. Place the fish on the salt block, cook for about 5 mins., flip, and cook for another 3 mins. Let rest. Heat up a cast iron skillet (lightly oiled) and add tortillas.

3 Tortillas 2 cups flour 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 cup vegetable shortening or 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 cup warm water or 1/2 cup milk Sift the flour, salt and baking powder into a large mixing bowl. Cut in the shortening (or add oil if using this option), and mix with your fingertips to combine. Add the milk or water, working the liquid into the dough until a sticky ball forms. Wrap in plastic and let rest for at least 30 mins. Divide the dough into 8 10 balls for small tortillas or 6 8 balls for larger ones and cover again with a damp cloth. Lightly dust a counter or pastry board with flour and roll out each ball of dough into a circle or oval, approximately 1/4 thick. If you want nicely rounded tortillas, trim off any ragged edges and discard. Don t roll the dough out more than once or the tortillas will be tough. Heat a dry griddle or heavy skillet over high heat for 5 minutes. Cook the tortillas for 30 secs. on each side or until the dough looks dry and slightly wrinkled and a few brown spots form on both surfaces. Do not overcook or they will be hard. Butter, roll up and wrap in a damp tea towel to keep warm as you cook the other tortillas.
