Olvera runs some of the most celebrated restaurants in the world, and this is not that food. This is the food he grew up on and cooks at home, 100 recipes that are the core of Mexican cooking, written for people who live nowhere near Mexico and want to cook it anyway.
The LADJA team uses it for:
- The core basics, the ones every other Mexican dish is built on
- Working traditional Mexican ingredients into weeknight cooking
- Reading Peter Meehan's foreword first
