From the Kitchens of Pancho Villa edition by Karina Ann Betlem Cookbooks Food Wine eBooks Reviews
Bought my copy from a friend of the author. As I'm typing this, I'm also enjoying the Chipotle Chicken recipe from the book. I have read and been delighted by this charmer of a cookbook, from cover to cover. Best money spent on ways to spice up a meal and get really authentic cuisine from south of the border. Thanks for all the hard work and love that went into making this book!
"From the Kitchens of Pancho Villa" by Karina Ann Betlem is a cookbook I couldn't put down from the minute I got it! It's a treasure of stories, the local people, the history, and most of all the wonderful authentic recipes that make Mexican cooking so delicious! I love that the author cares enough to share her love of people with the love they all share with Mexican cooking for all of us to enjoy. It's my favorite cookbook in my collection and will be passed down through many generations to come!
I have just about every cookbook imaginable and so of course, I needed to buy this one. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. When I got the book, the cover was beautiful, so I started flipping through it. I didn't get very far and decided I needed to start at the beginning. I read it all afternoon, forgetting I needed to prepare dinner for my family. I had read a recipe earlier called Chicken with Slices of Mushrooms and since I had all those ingredients (actually not many ingredients at all) I decided to test it out. Karina said it was easy, fast and delicious.......so I wanted to give it a try to see if that was really true. Well, it WAS! My family devoured the chicken and I have earmarked it to make again soon.
Most cookbooks are about just the recipes, but From the Kitchens of Pancho Villa is also about the people. I felt as if I was getting to know these cooks that she obviously cares very deeply for. Their individual stories are inspiring and many times humorous. I will no longer use my pressure cooker without thinking of the lid embedded in the ceiling!
As I said before, I had no idea what I was getting myself into, well, I will tell you. I keep this book in my kitchen and I will not be happy until I have made every recipe in it! I am going to give this cookbook to everyone on my birthday list this year, and if they don't already have it on their own, my Christmas list too. Thank you Karina for one of the best cookbooks in my collection - I will use it well.
Wow! The author managed to persuade local Mexican chefs to share their best kept culinary secrets - and she put everything together delivering it to us on a silver platter!
This is a must-have book for anybody who loves Mexican cuisine!
What an amazing cookbook!! The recipes are so easy to follow and most everything can be purchased within the States.
I love that Karina has included tidbits about each of her featured cooks, herself, and her own family. It makes you feel as though you were in the kitchen with them when they made each of their creations and as she wrote. I have discovered that for everything I have tried, they do come out the way that I think they should. There isn't any of that second guessing like most of us have to do when we try something from somewhere and think 'ewww is it suppose to do that'? Not here. Awesome recipes. Awesome stories. Awesome author! Can hardly wait for the next one! Thank you Karina, for taking me along on your journey through Mexico and Mexican cooking!
With "From the Kitchens of Pancho Villa," Karina Ann Betlem has created a totally unique, very entertaining book that is described as a cookbook, but is so much more.
The author is American-born but has lived in Mexico with her family for the past three years in a place called Colonia Francisco Villa, commonly known as Pancho Villa. After sampling the incredibly tasty meals of the area, she had the interesting idea to approach seventeen residents (all outstanding cooks) of Pancho Villa and pick their brains for authentic Mexican recipes that have been handed down for generations.
Each section begins with an entertaining biography of the cook, followed by several of their best recipes. The recipes are set forth in easy-to-understand language that even a not very talented cook like the writer of this review can understand. You can almost taste the great flavor of the beef/chicken/seafood dishes and mouth-watering desserts as you read over the recipes. Best of all, the ingredients are inexpensive but nutritious items that can be easily found in any supermarket, including those in America.
Some of my favorite recipes are special shrimp in garlic sauce, beef with coke (with the ingredients including potatoes, olives, chiles, black pepper, carrots, and Coca-Cola!), and a dessert called Mango Snow.
In addition to the recipes, the author's positive personality, friendship with the locals, and love for the area and its food shine through. And there are even many pictures of the smiling cooks in their kitchens, as well as some of the town, that give this book its own special flavor.
An outstanding effort. I recommend it most highly.
