flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

eggs

🥗Healthier: flaxseed meal

Flaxseed meal is a plant-based alternative.

Incorporate 250 grams of flour into a bowl.

Add 70 ML of water, 70 ML of milk, 20 ML of oil, and a bit of salt to the flour.

Mix the ingredients well and transfer to the countertop to start working the dough.

Knead the dough well and patiently to form good gluten for structure and elasticity.

Let the dough rest covered for about 20 minutes.

After resting, stretch the dough using fingers first, then a rolling pin, ensuring it's even and using a bit of flour to prevent sticking.

Use a cheese stick as a guide for the width when cutting the dough into strips.

Stretch the strip a bit before rolling it around the cheese stick.

Start rolling by covering the cheese stick along its length and then begin to twist, pressing down with fingers to seal each layer tightly.

Finish by pressing down with the palms of your hands to secure the roll.

Dust the rolled tequeños with flour and set aside.

This recipe will yield about 20 tequeños.

It is recommended to freeze them and fry them frozen for a golden and super crispy result.
