      This is a great technique for cooking pulled chicken for tacos or any other Mexican dish

      This "sarsa" is an amazing accompaniment to simply cooked beans. The roasted chiles and vinegar are unexpected and delicious. We even eat this with chips.

Publishers Text

Jacqueline Higuera McMahan's personal history as an eighth-generation Californian adds spice to this sumptuous celebration of “the first fusion food.” The recipes, blending Spanish, Mexican, and Californian cuisine, include Butterflied Lamb in Pomegranate Juice, Adobado (Chile-Soaked Pork or Spareribs), Grilled Trout Wrapped in Fig Leaves, and Strawberry Enchiladas with Sweet Milk Tortillas. With dozens of accompanying photographs in this collection of earthy yet sophisticated recipes of old California, McMahan also shares early California lore and memories of family meals.
