A well-known Mexican cook, Aida Gabilondo offers a wonderful array of dishes -- zesty red snapper baked in a sause of tomato, pimento, and jalapeno peppers, a mouth-watering version of the classic Mole Poblano (chicken in a spicy sauce subtly flavored with chocolate), a fast and easy tamale pie, festive stuffed green chiles with walnut sauce, and many, many more.
Elegantly designed and beautifully illustrated, this marvelous cookbook is a complete cooking course and more. Throughout, Aida Gabilondo relates the origins of a dish, and the local lore and custom, so that we learn not just about the food but also about the magnificent Mexican landscape, culture, and people. Here is the very best of Mexican cooking written with the needs of the American cook in mind.
"Excellent, step-by-step, well-illustrated instructions that will ease the entree of Mexican cuisine into American homes." -- Publishers Weekly
