Today on my lunch break I piddled around with some small corn tortillas and 
a few fresh habs.  As an experiment, I cut a hab into thin slices and put 
them into some vegetable oil that was just heating up.  They quickly began 
to sizzle as I cut a tortilla into wegdes.  I fried the first few wedges 
with the hab still in the oil, but the hab browned quickly so I removed it 
before I fried more wedges.

I liked the chips I got; at first, they tasted completely ordinary.  But 
after about half a minute I could detect a rising heat, and after two 
minutes I had a comfortable hab glow.  I think I'll do this again, maybe 
making taco shells from tortillas.

BTW the enchiladas have been fun to learn...
