What are some creative ways to add a zing or spice up sour cream to use on tacos?!
Answers: I am cooking ground beef tacos tonight and want to enhance the flavor of the sour cream. I have some limes and fresh cilantro at home so I was thinking of mixing up something. Does anyone have any ideas? I am open to anything at this point.
I've mixed the sour cream with cilantro and lime juice, and it tastes great.
Another idea is to put the sourcream in a food processor with one or two chipotle peppers and a touch of the adobo sauce they come packed in..spicy, but yummy.
I remember seeing someone on foodnetwork adding cilantro and 2 tbs. of tequila to 1 cup sour cream...mmm..tequila
Perhaps add some pico de gallo seasoning to the sourcream. It adds a nice kick to it.
A bit of lime and some cayenne pepper sounds great; just make sure you don't use to much juice as the sour cream will curdle.
mix with chili verde
If you have put a few drops of Tabasco sauce and stir well then add 1 or two cloves of crushed garlic it gives it a good kick. I do this all the time I also add avocados it makes a good Guacamole
Use the limes and cilantro, add some salsa to it too. Maybe some Tony sacheres...
1cup sour cream
2tablespoons chopped green chiles
2teaspoons chopped jalape?o peppers* (optional)
2teaspoons lime juice
Preparation: 1.Combine all ingredients in small bowl; mix until well blended.
a little chili powder and oregano is delicious.
looks nice also.
LOTS of chopped cilantro is always good ... If you have any salsa, you can just mix it into the sour cream... or add chili powder, cumin, cracked red pepper and a little tabasco ... don't forget the sliced avocados and chopped tomatoes too!
if you are using the taco seasoning packet to make taco meat add some seasoning to the sour cream. its very good.
Use the cilantro, a little bit of the lime juice and throw in some sazon seasoning.
you could add some chili power or some ground cumin. That may add a nice flavor; and color as well.
