Mexican Home Cooking: A Complete Guide to Classic Recipes from Mexico

By Alejandro Montoya Salcedo

Real Mexican home cooking, not Tex-Mex - 15 chapters of authentic, tested recipes built around corn, chiles, and generations of technique.

Mexican cooking is built on Indigenous and Spanish traditions, anchored by nixtamalized corn and a dazzling range of fresh and dried chiles. Mexican Home Cooking takes you deep into the dishes that Mexican families actually cook at home - no restaurant shortcuts, no Tex-Mex substitutions.

Inside, you'll find:

Tacos and antojitos: al pastor, carnitas, quesadillas, sopes, and huaraches
Moles and complex sauces, including a real home version of mole poblano
Comforting stews and mains: pozole rojo, birria, chiles rellenos, and carne en su jugo
Tamales and masa dishes, plus the rice and beans that anchor every table
Hearty soups, homemade breads, and classic antojitos de panader a
Desserts everyone grows up on: flan mexicano, capirotada, and tres leches cake
A full guide to aguas frescas, horchata, a proper margarita, and caf de olla
Menu-building and a complete guide to hosting a Mexican fiesta at home
