In an easy-to-follow format, this book provides handy background and travel information about Mexico and some of its ruins before dipping into the ninety-one recipes included here, organised according to meal course. There are recipes that will suit most everyone's palate, from sauces and salsas to soups and sausages; from vegetarian and meat appetisers and main dishes to simple drinks and desserts. Each section begins with a brief description of the course and the types of food involved. The recipes are clear and easy to understand -- one need not be a trained chef with a vast kitchen to create a tasty Yucatecan meal.
Nancy Gerlach and Jeffrey Gerlach
"At home in the kitchen, this cookbook is an excellent introduction to the foods of the Maya, and is sure to produce numerous tasty and original meals." "This is much more than a cookbook because it is a guide to Yucatan culture as well." "For those who have visited the area, this book will bring back fond memories of wonderful food and destinations. For those who haven't, it's a great introduction to one of the most amazing parts of Mexico, and a fabulous culinary adventure for all."
