One thing we love about Mexico is the food.  Certainly we enjoy street tacos and love to  Betsy and Maria getting ready to whip up a great Salsaeat at the street vendors, but there is much more to Mexican food than the tacos, enchiladas and table salsa we see in most Mexican restaurants in the US.  Mexico has a deep history of foods, a blend of the influences of Mayan, Aztec and European cultures to say the least.  As we learn more about these wonderful foods we will post some of our favorite recipes here. Please feel free to download them and use them as you please.  If you wish to reprint them please ask permission.  We owe a great deal to Marilau Ricaud  from San Miguel de Allende where we took several days of her wonderful cooking classes.  She teaches the techniques of traditional Mexican cooking at her Traditional Mexican Cooking School.  Our salsa and tamale recipes are the result of our notes and her hand outs from her class, and we give her a big thank you for her excellent instruction.  If you love to cook, her classes are a once in a lifetime experience but a warning, once you have found the secret to good Mexican food preparation, eating out at many restaurants will become a big disappointment.  Just reading a recipe will
not give you the background necessary to fully
understand and appreciate the correct techniques.                                                                  

If you try some of the recipes please let us know how you liked them.  Most importantly of all please let us know if you find something wrong with them.  Feel free to ask us any questions also.  

The food area is new and under construction.  Please check back frequently as we will be adding lots of recipes.
