As authentic as it gets.....

My husband is from Jalisco, Mexico, and we cook dishes from his hometown every other day. This book I believe is out of print, so get 'em while you can. The only complaint I have is that the book should have 3x more recipes. The photos are of REAL mexican households, nothing fancy at all. Every recipe is practical, true home cooking from various parts of Mexico, and none of that fancy foodie arrangement. Sopes, soups, stews...and chiles chiles chiles...the soul of Mexican cooking. I have 300+ cookbooks in my kitchen, and use this one at least once a week. Thank you, Ortho, for producing this look at authentic Mexican cooking. Wish it was longer.
