Love this book October 9, 2008 I really like this book because of the focus on food that works for average day to day cooking. Granted, it's not 5-minute meals, but the recipes are still quick and they work. Yum.
Fantastico August 2, 2008 This book makes Mexican totally accessible. I'm so excited to cook through this book because I love Mexican food, but eating out gets expensive and always has too much cheese and lard. Rick's book makes it a lot healthier with regional flavors and cooking techniques.
Not what I expected. July 13, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This may be an excellent book but it just wasn't what I was looking for. I was looking for a basic mexican food cookbook with ideas and variations for your standard tacos, burritos etc... This is not it. Many of the ingredients cannot be found at our local market. I am returning book.
Absolutely Fabulous! June 9, 2008 I cannot say enough positive things about this cookbook! I have made recipe after recipe from it since I first saw Rick Bayless on Emeril Live make the Trout with Macadamias recipe and I was hooked! These dishes are not only wonderfully complex in flavor and utterly delicious but they are also healthful and beyond simple to prepare. My husband has loved every meal I have made from this book. I am working my way through the whole thing and have happy taste buds as a result! If you love a variety of flavors and foods, are short on meal making time most days and are concerned with maintaining a healthy weight, buy this book, you won't be disappointed!
Every day food... probably not February 5, 2008 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I really like Rick Bayless on TV. Though I cook everyday and enjoy cooking his recipes seem a little time consuming. So, when I saw he came out with a "Mexican Everyday" cookbook I thought he had a book of simply or simplified recipes. I haven't found it to be true. Quite a few recipes require a day ahead planning unless you want to be in the kitchen all day long. The couple recipes I've made are very good, but I think the title of the book is misleading. You can't just open this up and cook dinner. You need to open it up and plan ahead.
