In Mexican Today , she shares easy, generous dishes, both traditional ones and her own new spins. Some are regional recipes she has recovered from the past and updated, like Miners’ Enchiladas with fresh vegetables and cheese or Drunken Rice with Chicken and Chorizo, a specialty of the Yucatán. “Sweaty” Tacos with ripe tomatoes and cheese are so convenient they’re sold on Mexican streets by bicyclists. Her grandmother’s Cornflake Cookies feel just as contemporary now as they did then. Pati has “Mexed up” other recipes in such family favorites as Mexican Pizza with Grilled Skirt Steak and Onions. Still other dishes show the evolution of Mexican food north and south of the border, including Mexican Dreamboat Hotdogs and Cal-Mex Fish Tacos with Creamy Slaw. This food will draw everyone together—a family at the end of a working day, a book club, or a neighborhood potluck. Throughout, Pati is an infectious cheerleader, sharing stores of the food, people, and places behind the recipes. Review: Hot tamale! Love this cookbook and it's fresh approach. - Pati Jinich’s first book sits on my counter and I refer to it often and was very excited for her second to be released. I have not been disappointed. The recipes are fresh and exciting, truly mixing past and present with both ingredients, historical perspectives and a true sensibility of the way people eat today. I love the format of the recipes. They are clearly written with the prep time, cook time and make ahead option listed up front, which makes for easy planning. I read another reviewer who said the ingredients were hard to find, and while some might be depending on where you live, there are alternatives listed. I live in a city and have not had any trouble locating ingredients for the recipes I’ve tried. The frequent sections of “Cook’s Tips” are filled with useful tidbits of advice. I cook often, but rarely go out on a limb and away from what I’m comfortable with. Pati Jinich makes me want to try different recipes and ingredients I never thought of. Her voice when telling the short stories that top each recipe are entertaining and fun to read, often including family anecdotes and entertaining moments. The large colorful blocks of information scattered throughout the book that discuss ingredients, methods, techniques and background information are visually exciting, educational, and often, a little bit sassy! I love the photography, the color choices and the idea that Mexican food can join any other type of food we make and enhance it. A true fusion of foods across our cultural kitchens. I love it. Review: Best Mexican cookbook! - Okay, I haven’t read all the Mexican cookbooks in the world, but I have quite a few, and this is one of my favorites. Jinich describes each technique (including how to easily char and prep fresh chiles) very clearly, so even the more complex recipes are easy to follow. Most require only ingredients you’re likely to already have or have (at least if you live in the Southwest like I do) easy access to. I love her flavors, have prepared at least a fourth of the recipes in the book, and we’ve enjoyed every one. I highly recommend this cookbook! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #121,241 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #21 in Mexican Cooking, Food & Wine #60 in Salad Cooking (Books) #85 in Gourmet Cooking (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,125 Reviews | ## Images ![Mexican Today: New and Rediscovered Recipes for Contemporary Kitchens - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71T0bz2MHfL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hot tamale!
