Cuisine, Texas: A Multiethnic Feast

As my rating of cookbooks has been classified by some as rather demanding, please understand that 4 stars is not a slight. This book has a good variation of recipes, directions are easy to follow, the recipes show that they have been tried before publication, and they work well. Contained within 330 pages are a good representation of the major cuisines of Texas, e.g., certainly Southwestern/Mexican, Spanish, French, Cajun, German, African American, Jewish, Italian, Polish, English, Scottish, Irish, Vietnamese, Scandinavian, you get the idea. This is a little known book that deserves recognition. However, it is a serious book. If pictures are a critical component for you, also understand that you will be disappointed here.
