Authentic and Eclectic Cuisine of Mexico!

I found this book in a used shop for $... and it has become my most prized Mexican Cuisine cookbooks to date. Some of the recipes are so unusual I have never seen them anywhere else in my extensive cookbook collection. George C. Booth has a real gem in this one, and the amazing thing is its age - 1964 - at the start of the home cooked Mexican Food revolution! With its extensive descriptions of ingredients, methods of preparation and serving techniques as well as a complete glossary of cooking terms and foodstuffs I have found this one book to be an indispensable reference material for my cookbook shelf. And the copious selection of mixed and prepared drinks in the back of the book is spellbinding! I highly reccomend this for anyone who wants to have a solid grounding in the Cuisine of Mexico.

Food and Drink of Mexico is a great collection of receipes.

Booth has chosen representative receipes from all over Mexico. They are easy to follow and prepare. I'm buying another copy to replace the one I lost. Buen Provecho.
