How to make it

  • To make pastry shells: Sift together flour & salt; stir in cornmeal. Cut in the shortening until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in grated cheddar cheese. Sprinkle the water over mixture, tossing lightly with a fork, until pastry is uniformly dampened. Roll to about 1/8 inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter. Press circles into tiny tart cups; ruffling edges. Bake in hot ( 400 degrees F. ) oven for 10 to 13 minutes. Place on racks to cool & carefully remove tart shells from tart pans.To make filling: Combine all filling ingredients in top of a double-boiler.Fill bottom of double-boiler 1/4 full of water & bring to boil. Place top of double boiler on bottom & heat filling mixture, stirring often, until completely hot & cheese melts. Spoon filling into cornmeal tarts & serve hot, with a leaf or two of fresh cilantro on each tart.
