Just remembering the crispy fried chicken and luscious peach cobblers a grandmother or aunt used to make can set your mouth watering. And since remembering is no substitute for eating, cooks across... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Although I've never been to Texas, I *LOVE* this cookbook, as does everyone to whom I've given it as a gift. The recipes are all delectable, and written clearly enough for even northerners to understand. They are also preceded by clear descriptions of what makes them so wonderful (which I, myself, find invaluable in cookbooks), and many are quick and easy to prepare. You can't help but love this one!
Fabulous Classic Texas and Tex-Mex Recipes
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I absolutely love this book! Over the last ten years, it has become a staple in my kitchen and the kitchens of friends who I have blessed with a copy. I am not a very talented cook, but I find these recipes easy to follow and virtually fail proof. My husband, a fabulous cook, also loves cooking with recipes from Cooking Texas Style. The book is filled with great unheard of recipes as well as Texas and Tex-Mex classics. In addition to the recipes, the personal notes that Ms. Marquez and Ms. Wagner have included are a thrill to read. There is information about the origin of some of the dishes as well as great family stories. I highly recommend this book to the novice or master chef! Enjoy!
Excellent Regional Cookbook
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This cookbook is the best book on regional Texas cooking that I have ever read. The recipes are clear and informative, spanning Mexican, German, and Southern dishes. The work is made all the more interesting by its insights into Texan life and culture.
