HIC’s Taco Shell Tong is perfect for cooking fresh and delicious crunchy taco shells at home, without the greasy mess. Nothing tastes better than fresh homemade taco shells! Don’t endure stale or broken store-bought shells any longer. The specially designed contoured blades of the Taco Shell Tong securely grips and molds tortillas (up to 6-inches) into a classic U-shape taco shell while they cook to a crispy golden brown. The open-wire blades allow cooking oils to drain away quickly so shells are perfectly crisp with a grease-free crunch. The longer offset handle rests securely on the edge of fryers and pans and keeps hands safely away hot oils. Easy to use. Simply open the blades and place a small tortilla inside. Press the handles together to mold the U-shape, continue to hold handles closed and submerge the tortilla into hot oil until desired crispiness is achieved. Drain cooked shells on a paper towel then pile high with taco fixings, like beef, fish, beans, veggies, grated cheeses, pico de gallo, lettuce, sour cream, and other and taco toppings. A must-have of kitchen essentials and cooking tools for every taco enthusiast. Easily fry flour, corn, gluten-free or paleo tortillas into fresh, crispy taco shells for homemade fish tacos, beef or veggie tacos, and more. Helpful hint. Whether it’s taco Tuesday with family or Cinco de Mayo with friends, making taco shells in advance and reheating as needed ensures for stress-free indoor and outdoor entertaining. Made from chrome-plated steel with stay-cool handle, HIC’s Taco Shell Tong is sturdy and durable. Hand wash in warm, soapy water.
