Mexican Family Cooking

If you want to know where Aaron Sanchez, my son, and I get our inspiration, here is the source: I  just found out that my mother Aida Gabilondo’s book Mexican Family Cooking, Ballantine Books (1987) is available on Alibris.

When the book first came out, Paula Wolfert a, a friend and my all-time favorite cookbook author, said to me: “Oh! Zarela.  I am so disappointed in your mother’s book.  I thought that she would top Diana (Kennedy) .  I replied:” Sorry to break it to you but this is the way middle class families cook.” It is still a favorite and a bible to many. You can see the comments on facebook.
