Vertamae Cooks Again

Summary: CALLING ALL COOKS!
Review: If you don't have a copy of Vertamae Cooks in the Americas Family Kitchen or Vertamae Cooks Again, order them now!

Vertamae Cooks Again is full of recipes from all over the Americas, with an emphasis on Mexican cuisine. No tacos or enchiladas here folks -- try my favorite - tres leches cake. Or give the ribs called "table cloth stainers" a try.

Besides being a great cook, Vertamae is a food anthropologist. Most of the recipes in both books are accompanied by historical information that gives you a feel for the culture. Her recipes are always clearly written and unique. And her books include listings of stores that carry some of the hard-to-find ingredients.

Check out the PBS series Vertamae Cooks in the Americas Family Kitchen, then buy both books and try the recipes. You'll hope that Vertamae cooks again and again and again...
