Description
The first cookbook to present authentic versions of beloved Mexican sweets plus a creative selection of new recipes rooted in traditional flavors and ingredients. While there are countless cookbooks about Mexican food, very little has been written about the vast and varied world of Mexican desserts, confections, beverages, and breads. In "My Sweet Mexico," Fany Gerson explores the history behind the familiar landmark Mexican staples of her homeland, explains the significance of unfamiliar ingredients, and provides modern twists on old favorites and flavors, such as Cheesecake with Tart Tamarind Sauce or Chocolate, Hazelnut, and Caramel Layered Cake with Tequila Whipped Cream. Fany also includes the indispensable culinary delights that accompany national celebrations such as Day of the Dead. With its blend of beloved standards and inventive variations, "My Sweet Mexico" is a rich journey into the culture, history, and sweet soul of Mexican cuisine.
