HIC Kitchen Taco Shell Tong for Homemade Taco Shells

HIC's Taco Shell Tong is an essential kitchen tool designed for creating fresh, crunchy taco shells right at home, eliminating the hassle of greasy cleanup. There's nothing quite like the taste of homemade taco shells, so say goodbye to stale or broken store-bought options!

This innovative tong features specially contoured blades that securely grip and mold tortillas (up to 6 inches) into a classic U-shape as they fry to a beautiful, crispy golden brown. The unique open-wire design allows excess cooking oils to drain away quickly, ensuring the shells come out perfectly crisp with a delightful, grease-free crunch.

One of the standout features of the Taco Shell Tong is its longer offset handle, which rests comfortably on the edges of fryers and pans, keeping your hands securely away from hot oils. The user-friendly design makes frying taco shells a breeze. Simply open the blades, insert a small tortilla, and press the handles together to form a U-shape. Hold the handles closed while you submerge the tortilla into hot oil until it reaches your preferred level of crispiness. Once cooked, drain the shells on a paper towel before piling them high with your favorite taco fillings, whether that be seasoned beef, fish, vibrant veggies, shredded cheese, pico de gallo, crisp lettuce, sour cream, or a variety of other toppings.

This Taco Shell Tong is a must-have for taco enthusiasts and should be considered a staple in any kitchen toolkit. With its versatility, you can fry flour, corn, gluten-free, or paleo tortillas into perfectly crispy shells ideal for a range of dishes, from homemade fish tacos to beef and veggie options.

Tip: If you're hosting a taco-themed dinner for family or celebrating Cinco de Mayo with friends, preparing the taco shells in advance and simply reheating them as needed will ensure a smooth and enjoyable entertaining experience.

Crafted from sturdy chrome-plated steel, the HIC Taco Shell Tong is both durable and robust. It features a stay-cool handle, providing comfort while cooking at high temperatures. The tong is heat-safe up to 370 degrees Fahrenheit and measures 13.5 x 3.25 x 4.5 inches, making it the perfect size for handling tortillas.

In summary, HIC Kitchen’s Taco Shell Tong offers an effortless way to form and fry up fresh, crispy taco shells without any greasy mess. Easy to clean, it can be hand washed in warm, soapy water after use, ensuring it remains in great condition for your next taco night. Whether for casual family dinners or vibrant celebrations, this tool makes taco preparation easy and fun, so you can enjoy perfect homemade taco shells every time!
