You'll Be Glad You Have It

The student and traveler to Mexico often returns home craving the tastes they experienced in Baja California. Ann's cookbook will compliment anyone's kitchen. From the appetizers to the salsas to the carnitas to the margaritas, with a little musica norteña, una fría and this cookbook, you can have a 'virtual' visit to Baja California. Recommended.

Great Baja-style cuisine

The food in this book is excellent. As an almost-native San Diegan who has moved away, I depend on this book to help me make the Baja-style food that I love. I particularly like the Carnitas and the Chicken Enchiladas Verdes. Whenever I make carnitas, my guests just rave! The portions are somewhat large, so have a party or do what I often do - eat carnitas scrambled into eggs, made into quesadillas, etc. My only issue with this book is that there are a few technical mistakes(i.e. wrong page numbers, etc.). However, this is easy to overlook. Enjoy!

Best Mexican Food

The receipes are great. The only care to take is that the portions are big. The stories are great.

A joyous celebration of the culture and cuisine of Baja

This book should be purchased in threes; one for your kitchen, one for your coffee table, and one to take apart so that you can frame the illustrations. The recipes are simple to prepare and the results are SENSATIONAL! It is truly a gorgeous celebration of the flavors of Baja California: gastronomic and cultural. Take it along as a guidebook, too, if you want to explore Hazard's inspirations.
