About the book

The definitive “bible” of Mexican home cooking, by Mexico's leading culinary authority, Margarita Carrillo Arronte.

Mexico: The Cookbook is the definitive and comprehensive work on Mexican home cooking. With a culinary tradition spanning over 9,000 years, Mexican cuisine bears the influences of the Aztecs and Mayans and is known for its use of fresh, aromatic ingredients, vibrant presentation, and bold flavor combinations.

The book features over 700 delicious and authentic recipes that can be easily prepared at home. From tamales, fajitas, and mole sauces to cactus salad, blue crab soup, and melon seed drink, the recipes celebrate the fresh flavors and ingredients from a country whose cuisine is cherished worldwide.

Organized by dish type and style (street food, appetizers, drinks, fish and seafood, meat and poultry, vegetables, legumes and rice, and desserts), Mexico: The Cookbook also includes an extensive introduction to the history of Mexican cuisine, ingredients, and techniques, while the "Chef Menu" section offers inspiring recipes and menus from some of Mexico's most prominent chefs.

How to choose the first Japanese knife?

If you are buying your first Japanese knife, the advice is to choose a multifunctional blade shape that will cover the widest range of your needs in the kitchen. This includes Gyuto, Santoku and Bunka. The rule is that bigger people need bigger knives and vice versa.

Japanese knife as a perfect gift

Although in the culture of the Far East it is not recommended to give a blade as a gift because of the connection with cutting off good relations, they also could not resist the perfection of such a gift, so they devised a "trick" that allows them to gift knives without problems. Just ask for one coin from the person receiving the gift and in the eyes of strict superstition spirits it will be a fair exchange. Now no joke, a knife is a gift that unlike other transient things will be remembered forever because it will serve forever.
