Cactus Salad (Nopalitos) with Maria J. Ronquillo

 Recipe for a “nopalitos” salad, as show on the show Let’s Cook Together, on 3ABN  in 2006

  I use about the same recipe myself…. I use a lot of onion, some garlic,  and more cilantro, some cumen, and corn and cooked black beans also.  I don’t use lemon since our cactus already has a lemony tang to it.

   The folks in this video harvest the same type cactus we do… Nopalea grande. We also use similar thick rubbery gloves. Leather gloves are not what to use.

     We put ours into five gallon buckets also,  to take them to the packing shed…. but our buckets are clean.
