Sinossi

'Obscure Mexican Bites' unveils a fascinating exploration of Mexico's hidden culinary treasures, venturing far beyond familiar dishes to document endangered recipes and techniques that have shaped regional Mexican cuisine for centuries.

 
This comprehensive work combines archaeological evidence, historical research, and firsthand accounts from local cooks to present a deeper understanding of Mexico's diverse food heritage, from pre-Hispanic preparations to unique regional specialties. The book takes readers on a geographical journey through Mexico's distinct culinary regions, from coastal areas to central highlands and the desert north, revealing how landscape and available ingredients have influenced local specialties.

 
Readers discover intriguing dishes like Yucatan's Lebanese-influenced kibi, Oaxaca's ceremonial tejate drink, and Sonora's bacanora spirit, each accompanied by detailed historical context and cultural significance. These lesser-known preparations demonstrate how migration patterns, indigenous traditions, and climate variations have created unique regional cooking styles.

 
Structured to serve both scholarly and practical purposes, the book combines anthropological research with accessible recipes adapted for modern kitchens. Each chapter provides historical background, examines key ingredients, and shares personal stories from local food preservationists, creating a valuable resource for food historians, culinary professionals, and serious home cooks interested in exploring authentic Mexican cuisine beyond common stereotypes. The work stands as a crucial documentation of traditional cooking methods and ingredients that risk disappearing in the face of modernization.

    Creamy, satisfying and delicious, risotto is one of the world's favourite rice dishes. This Italian comfort food is so versatile and works well made with vegetables, fish, shellfish, meat and poultry.
    
    Different regions of Italy have their own classic rice dishes, from the soupy Rice and Peas of the Veneto to the Hunter's-style Rabbit Risotto of Umbria and Tuscany, but what they all have in common is the careful cooking of the rice to perfection. For a simple but comforting dinner, there are plenty of dishes packed full of warming cheese and butter, such as Saffron Risotto, Wild Mushroom Risotto or Artichoke and Pecorino Risotto. Lighter fish and shellfish dishes include the dramatic Black Risotto, flavoured with squid ink, Seafood Risotto or Crab and Chilli Risotto. There are also many tempting meaty options, from hearty family meals to dinner party dishes. Children and adults alike will enjoy Ham and Leek Risotto, while you can impress guests with Pheasant and Red Wine Risotto. There are also a few ideas for using up leftover risotto (or for when you simply want to ring the changes), such as Arancini or Rice Croquettes with Tomato Sauce, as well as some surprising sweet delights such as Cherry and Almond Risotto Puddings or Risotto Ice Cream. With useful recipes for various stocks, easy-to-follow instructions for making a basic risotto and a guide to the different kinds of rice available, this is a complete guide to risotto for all lovers of the classic Italian dish.

    Recently I experienced a major stroke. I was completely paralyzed on the right side of my body. It was a “Stroke” of good fortune. This is our opportunity as Brahmins, to transform those which others would view as tragedy into an accumulation of power and blessings. My first thought when I was laying in the hospital, on the first day was “where the hell is Baba when you need him?” I had a typical, unknowledgeable, weak, and powerless reaction, which caused sorrow. The second day, an instrument sister brought a murli and read it to me in which Baba answered me saying “Baba only helps those who have courage”. Now my thought was “I have the most courage of anyone I know.” And I decided at that moment to put it into practice. Instead of the old bhakti sanskars playing their endless tune of begging for help etc. I decided to claim my rights as a child of the king. Instantly I found myself in Baba’s lap. Never did he leave me after that, nor did I leave him. Baba has told us that if we take one small step of courage, he will carry us another thousand etc. That was my practical experience.

If you’re already a “cooking from the spirit” sort of person, you’ll love how much freedom Tab gives to make these delicious vegan dishes your own. If you’re newer to cooking—or to vegan cooking—Tab will help you get comfortable in the kitchen and, most important, have fun doing it! 
    In this joyful book, Tab shares personal stories, inspirational “Tabisms,” and more than eighty easy, family-friendly recipes, including:Yam Halves Topped with Maple-Cinnamon Pecan GlazeStuffed AvocadoJackfruit Pot RoastCrab-less Cakes with Spicy Tartar SauceWho Made the Potato Salad?Kale and Raspberry SaladStrawberry Cheesecake Cups
