When my mom made taco's back in the day, she made her own shells. Oh she didn't make them from scratch, like from corn meal and such. She fried the corn tortilla's into taco shells. About 5 or so years ago I started doing the same thing. I'm so glad I used to help my mom fry shells, because it all came back to me! I have to tell you, it makes our Mexican dinner so tasty!!!! I know it's way easier to just buy already made shells, but it is SO worth it to make them yourself!!! Just try it and taste the difference, I promise you won't go back!!!!
*(Trust me, we still have flour soft taco's for an quick Mexican dinner.)
Please always be super duper careful when using hot oil!!!!! Always!!!

| This brand is best! Try to find a 'thin' shell. |
 |
| choose a pan to use just for oil. (I don't have a fry daddy) |
 |
| fill pan with vegetable oil not even half way!!!! |
 |
you have to use a taco shell maker

| Only enough oil to just cover the taco shell maker!!! |
 |
| taco maker opens, place shell inside |

I love this! However, the links above don't seem to work to order the taco maker? Where can we find this taco maker?
