ENRIQUE MADRID:
THE SOCIAL & SCIENTIFIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE PERFECTLY ROUND TORTILLA
Texas/Mexico border historian/scholar Enrique Madrid and his wife Ruby offer a lesson on how to prepare traditional Mexican recipes, including Enrique's theory that perfectly round tortillas obey the very same laws of physics as the universe milliseconds after the Big Bang. Enrique and Ruby feel strongly that teaching people how to cook simple, wholesome food helps to preserve traditions and keeps "endangered flavors" alive. Sustenance - both physical and intellectual - provides individuals and families with the means to thrive, and creates bonds within communities and between cultures.
Coincidentally, I posted this on the video on the same day that Texas Monthly posted an article on Enrique and the tortilla formula titled Holy Frijoles.
