Review of "The Tex Mex Cookbook" November 11, 2008
This is not only a cook book, but a wonderful history of each dish giving the cookbook real meaning - not just process.
I love it! August 14, 2008
I love this cookbook. It gives a history and stories about some of my favorite texmex dishes. I got one for all my siblings and some of my in-laws. My daughter even gave one to her favorite professor. Living in south texas, we get authentic texmex, and this is the first cookbook that I've found that lives up to it's name. If you like Mexican food and you want the real thing to serve at home, this is the cookbook to get!!

This book is the epitamy of south Texas history PLUS cuisine. I admit to being biased for more authentic Mexican cooking, thus a big fan of the likes of Diana Kennedy and Ray Bayless's books, but nonetheless my south Texas husband and his family are avid Tex Mex diners. I needed to brush up on the Tex Mex cuisine and came across this little gem, because not only am I a foodie, but I'm also a history buff. Filled with old pictures and history from over a century ago, and finding the recipes to be quite authentic (of what I've seen in south Texas), I couldn't put this book down. This is probably one of the best Tex Mex cookbooks that I have seen, and I have seen plenty. To those that are biased true Mexican cuisine enthusiasts, just know that I am with you in sentiment, but this is still a great read with plenty of recipes that will please our stubborn palates. Enjoy!

I have lived in the southwest for years and enjoy eating all the TEX-MEX food from the western states. This little recipe book give a lot to local food in different regions. The end results of the food I have prepared is very good...sometimes I have had problem finding certain item that the recipe calls for but if you understand Mexican cooking and what goes with what you can find different ingredients to use.

The Tex-Mex Cookbook is an invaluable source of Tex/Mex cooking fact, folklore, history and recipe content. I highly recommend it.
