Stunning, gorgeous are not words that we usually use to describe cookbooks, but that was before the incredible Mexico: A Culinary Quest by Hossein Amirsadeghi and Ana Paula Gerard. As revealed on the cover it is "A compelling photographic volume capturing the very essence of Mexico - its culture, history, people, landscapes, and mind-bendingly diverse range of contemporary culinary styles."
"Volume" is certainly an appropriate word as you won't be tucking MEXICO away on your kitchen shelf as it is over 600 pages in length and measures 10 by 13 inches. Simply put it is a beauty that you'll want to display for all to enjoy. The photographs by Adam Wiseman, a documentary photographer, are certainly treats for the eye and frame-worthy.
We are treated to a cultural and culinary journey across Mexico's thirty-two states - glorious landscapes to take your breath away and the amazing range of culinary styles will set your mouth to
watering. We meet great chefs who share their tables, their menus and their specialties as well as visits to noted restaurants and humble eateries noted for their cuisine.
The authors have overlooked nothing in Mexico: A Culinary Quest. Enjoy!
