Secrets of Salsa

Secrets of Salsa has provided an infusion of healthy, delicious, and colorful salsas in my family's life. These recipes, which had never previously been written down, came from Mexican women who have moved to the United States and were attending English classes. The vignettes about the women are delightful and the fact that all the proceeds directly benefit adult literacy add to the value of the book.

I bought this book as a birthday present for a friend of mine. She's majoring in spanish and intends to teach english as a 2nd language to spanish students. She enjoyed the book a lot. Said she had never seen a book like it, with both languages side by side and also a kind of cook book. She took it to some of her spanish teachers and others in class and they all liked it. I thought it was a really neat idea, very unique. It would be good for someone interested in both languages, or good salsa!
