“I'm a longtime fan of Mely's work. I adore that her recipes are written for those new to Mexican cooking—including the younger generations of Mexicans who may not be adept at making chilaquiles or cactus salad. But her recipes are also enticing for chefs like me, because they are full of care and love, clearly crafted by a joyful cook and naturally gifted teacher. Mely Martinez is for real.”

—Roberto Santibañez, cookbook author, chef, and owner of Fonda in New York City


“Mely’s great work has no comparison. With this second book, she confirms her passion and generosity for sharing the Mexican cuisine outside of Mexico with research of the highest quality. Furthermore, this book positions her as one of the foremost Mexican gastronomic researchers outside of Mexico, who undoubtedly leaves a valuable culinary legacy for the next generations.”

—Edgar Salgado, Director of the School of Mexican Gastronomy (Escuela de Gastronomía Mexicana/ESGAMEX), Mexico City
