Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Sautéed spinach

    • KissTheCook on April 10, 2020

      p. 50 - recommends for omelette or souffle filling. I say also under fish.

  • Cactus salad (Ensalada de nopal)

    • mcvl on March 19, 2022

      It's spring, nopales are in season. Good tasty salad, but all the other ingredients drowned out the delicate, elusive taste of the raw cactus. Next time I'll adjust accordingly.

  • Lemon chicken

    • Avocet on December 31, 2021

      Made this with chicken thighs. Super easy and delicious. Increased the oregano and didn't need the water called for. Better to cook the thighs skin side up for the whole time.

  • Easy peach jam

    • KissTheCook on August 28, 2018

      Way sweet even using 1/2# less sugar. Fruit never broke down from original quarters. After requisite simmer time, boiled on high an hour and a half (instead of 40 min. per recipe) and never reached set point.
