My Mexico

A Culinary Odyssey with Recipes

About this book

"A deeply knowledgeable celebration of the diverse regional cuisines of Mexico.... [A] tour de force, with the emphasis on authenticity" ( Publishers Weekly ).

By universal acclaim, Diana Kennedy is the world's authority on the authentic cuisines of Mexico. For decades, she has traveled the length and breadth of the country, seeking out the home cooks, local ingredients, and traditional recipes that make Mexican cuisines some of the most varied and flavorful in the world. Kennedy has published eight classic Mexican cookbooks, including the James Beard Award-winning Oaxaca al Gusto. But her most personal book is My Mexico, a labor of love filled with more than three hundred recipes and stories that capture the essence of Mexican food culture as Kennedy has discovered and lived it. First published in 1998, My Mexico is now back in print with a fresh design and photographs—ready to lead a new generation of gastronomes on an unforgettable journey through the foods of this fascinating and complex country.

" My Mexico is a masterwork.... No other writer has come close to Diana Kennedy in communicating the variety, richness, and delights of the cuisines of Mexico." —Naomi Duguid, author of Burma: Rivers of Flavor

"Open any pages of My Mexico and be transported to a waking dream." — Food & Wine

"This book is as much a work of cultural anthropology as it is a recipe reference." — Publishers Weekly

"Many of these recipes are unusual and have not been recorded anywhere else. Kennedy is passionate about preserving these historical recipes... And she has followed her quest from large, thriving city marketplaces to tiny remote villages. Essential." — Library Journal
