Disappointed July 30, 2007 3 out of 11 found this review helpful
I was disappointed when I received this book from Amazon and searched through for something to cook that night. The recipes have too many ingredients (involving an extra trip or more to the grocery store) - and just not realistic for the working people of the world. Mind you, the food was good, but I don't have time in my life for a majority of the recipes in this book.
Wow, just incredable and great tasting recipes! July 7, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I've learned so much from this book! The recipes aren't only delicious but also healthy and affordable. It feels like a real treat with every new meal and even the regulars! I would recommend this book to anyone who would like to learn how to cook mexican with everything from the herbs and spices to where to find some of the hard to find items. I read the book from front to back and really got the full lesson you wouldn't normally get just jumping from recipe to recipe like I did for a while. I'll never look at Mexican the same!
Tasty, very tasty June 8, 2007 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is what I call traditional mexican food, for real, I am mexican by the way, and the flavor of the real mexican food has been captured in these recipes, although I must say that using masa harina in some of the recipes is not such a great idea, I know in some areas of Mexico it is used, but its taste overpowers everything else, so I would not use it, I would use corn starch instead, plain and simple. Besides that detail, the book definitely is worth it, if you like traditional mexican food; some dishes brought me back to my childhood years.
Just Like The Homeland, same taste but less work!!!! March 27, 2007 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
A must for your collection of Mexican cooking. You will re-live the mornings at home when the aroma chocked you to death but when you sat and ate it was all worth it!! If you truly love Authentic Mexican food will you understand what i am saying.
To easy to be this flavorful March 22, 2007 Full of flavor and easy to make dishes...if you cant find ingredients locally check out the riffs for substitutions and alternate preparations. If you don't like this book write your own.
