Here my site mates and I are making chuchitos with my family and other women in the community for a baptism the following day. It is tradition to make the chuchitos as take home food for all the guests in attendance - that's a lot of food! We took corn off the cob, but it through the molino, and made tortillas. We then filled the tortilla centers with tomato sauce and pieces of meat, enveloped the food inside the tortilla, and then wrapped the tortillas in the husks of the corn to cook. A pretty involved process!
