Directions
Bolillos are Po' boy rolls that are hard on the outside and soft on the inside. The cheese needs to be at room temperature first and then you need to mix in the habanero with a spoon or a fork. I don't like to use the blender for mincing the habanero because I want to keep the little pieces and I am afraid if I used it the pieces can be mixed too much. Build sandwiches using all ingredients. Good variations: 1) For those who don't like habaneros, use finely chopped chives. 2) Instead of habaneros, use 1 or 2 poblano peppers, peeled and deseeded. Mince half of the poblano in a blender and cut the remaining into ¼" pieces. Patricia Wriedt.
