OMG... I should not be watching this at 930pm!! I feel like I'm in the cosina with my Mother and Abuelita!! Not many people really know how we ( Boricua) throw down!! Keep it up Papa!! Many blessings to you and your family!!🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷♥️♥️♥️♥️
Oh that face you made at the end showed how tired you were. ❤ Thank you so much for coming home from working all day to make this video for us. I know I appreciate it and my family will too when I make this. ❤💕
Yes I was really tired. I work 10-12 hour days. But i have to be disciplined with myself and get it done. But I couldnt donit without Victor. Hes very helpful ❤🙏😇 . Thank you so much for watching. ❤
From what I remember,you soak the green bananas in warm water and you cut the ends in order to take the peel off. You brought some of my childhood memories alive. My mom will make these and some bacalao. At times she will cook for a large crowd at my father's baseball games. This is how she will earn money to buy our school clothes and supplies. I missed her cooking. Thank you for sharing. ❤❤❤❤
Two and a half hours later I finally enjoy my burnt alcapurias without extra vitamins (all fingers still intact). But the kitchen looks like huracane Maria has gone through it. My whole family is devastated by all the mess. All in all, I am happy with my first homemade Puerto Rican Alcapurias in The FreakinRican style. Thank you!⚘
Hola freakin rican here I am watching this at 730issh in the morning n yup I will be doing this today yummy nada cómo nuestra comida boricua 🇵🇷🇵🇷👌🏼👌🏼🥰🥰 gracias a ti I’ve learned how to do pasteles y ahora alcapurria yummy ❤❤❤❤❤
@@Thefreakinricanrestaurant lol. made them last night with white rice and beans, for my granddaughter and I, and they were amazing. p.s. I've never made them with sofrito in the masa before, what a difference. yum!
I used to think that Alcapurrias were the most hardest things to make but you make it look easy and explain it so well (in Spanish and English-the way I can relate! lol) that I will now give it a try! I love your food at your restaurant and at street fairs prior to 2020/recipes/videos! Thanx to Victor as well for being behind-the-scenes and showing us these delicious meals. Gracias! Love seeing Coco too --I have a NuyoRican pup-like Coco, Hispanic heritage. :) Stay healthy and well. Dios te Bendiga a todos. Peace...
Yes! Your restaurant made it on the googles list of best pr restaurants In THE USA!! I haven’t even been to your place yet and I knew you would be listed! Congrats!!!!!
My mouth is watering before the alcapurrias are finished cooking! My mother's family is from Cidra. My mother & tias made delicious alcapurrias, morsilla, pastels, arroz con gandules, pernil, mofongo, bola de papa, bacalao fritos, coquito, flan, etc. OMG! Orgullosa de ser Boricua! 💖🇵🇷💖🇵🇷
I'm SOOOO EXCITED that you showed this!!! This is literally my favorite PR food, next to this seafood mofongo that I got when I went to visit mi abuelita in Guayama...EVERYTHING in this mofongo was cooked to perfection...the shrimp, octopus, lobster, conch, & scallops, along w/the mofongo!! There's a couple things mi abuelita didn't make because they were too time consuming, so it's great to see that I can find them here!!!!😃👍
This is my first time seeing you on youtube and I never had seen anyone making the alcapurrias like you make them. I will be going to your restaurant tomorrow Saturday, February 13, 2021 and I will then put comments about your restaurant. I have the feeling that I am going to enjoy your food tomorrow. Keep cooking. I am a New York Rican same like you. Viva Puerto Rico.
Hi Freakin Rican....do you still use the small electric grater you demonstrated in a few of your previous videos? Next time I go to NY, I hope to go by your restaurant - I've been dying to check it out!
my friend where did you learn how to make alcapurrias? at the universidad of harvard perhaps? come down to piñones they will teach you to do alcapurrias, 🤣😂 but, i'm very proud of the puerto ricans new yorkers, for keeping our culture going strong in the big apple. keep up with the good work young man... and may GOD, BLISS you and family in the new year that's coming...🇵🇷🌈🏝🏖 from puerto rico, with love 🇵🇷🇵🇷
couldnt sleep 300am U are the First person I subscribed to. Yes this disabled Italian man who comes from a home where Mom was married 5xs. Italian lady to Rican, Italian and black husbands she suffered and us kids to, since racist was very bad back then. I looked at it as Mom was ahead of the Times. Wish others did. I not only love ur videos ur Personality. The Best Thank You El-Cheapo
Omg i been wanted one now I finally can make some ..my children are puertorican I’m a percentage so we all love it !!you did this video so good thank you so much !love how you added Spanish into the video !
finally I find a video that makes Alcapurrias the way I learned by putting the masa on a spoon! I use my hand dipped in water to smooth the masa on top. Delicious, thank you!
I came across this video oddly enough when looking for astrology videos 🤷🏻♀️ don’t ask me how yours popped up but I’m glad it did. Thank you for your recipe. I like your energy even though you were tired. I will make some alcapurrias soon pero con jueyes. 😉 💕✨
"When it tastes "Mmm" u know its gonna taste delicious" 😋 that's how I usually determine if I need to add more spices or not. Si e "Mmm" tiene que ser Bueno! 🤣😘🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷❤
Wao. Me facinan las alcapurrias. Saludos y bendiciones desde Dorado PUERTO RICOy Fort Worth Texas. Gracias por mistrarnos esta riquisima receta. Hasta el proximovideo. Bye Bye
