Pammy in Santa Fe



As many blog fans know, Pammy is taking her "term abroad" in New Mexico. She has been on the Annapolis campus of St. John's college for the past two years and is taking advantage of the fact that St. John's has a second campus in Santa Fe, NM. Since St. John's does not have any real term anywhere else options, it's necessary to go to the New Mexico campus to get a change of scenery. So here is the scenery! The first photo is more or less in the parking lot of the college, and the second photo is the view out of Pammy's dorm room window.
Not that you asked, but here's my recipe for huevos rancheros: For one serving, beat two large eggs in a bowl with a tiny bit of salt. In a small, oven proof frying pan, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Put a corn tortilla the same size as the pan (flour tortillas also work) into the oil until the bottom is just beginning to brown. Flip over the tortilla, and immediately pour the beaten eggs over the tortilla. When the egg mixture is beginning to set, cover with a handful or so of grated or shredded cheddar or monterey jack cheese (for a nice extra fillip, add a little bit of Cabot chipotle cheddar - not really pimiento cheese at all). Put the pan into a preheated oven at 350 degrees and bake until the top of the huevos browns nicely. Slide out of the pan and serve immediately with New Mexican style red sauce or good salsa (my favorite is Green Mountain Gringo if you can find it). I will try to give the red sauce recipe sometime soon, but I have to do some kitchen testing. For more servings of the huevos, use a larger pan and more tortillas, cheese and eggs. The rest is pretty much the same, but when you take the huevos out of the pan, cut it into servings with a pizza cutter.
