Review: Beautiful, colourful and delicious. - It's my third book purchase of Phaidon cooking series, first Mexican book ever, and they've all been an absolute hit. What can I say about this one? It's beautifully decorated, really brings out the colourful look of Mexico and Mexican cuisine, makes me happy to even open it. But be warned - Mexican cuisine is quite unique, a lot of ingredients you can only find online for quite a sum of money, at least in the UK, making it impossible to even try some of the recipes. Those unique ingredients include, vast range of dried chiles (ancho, guajillo, chipotle, jalepeno, poblano, serrano), fresh epazote leaves, tomatillos... You can substitute them with others, they will still make amazing dishes, but they will not be quite as authentic. But don't get sad, I still cooked plenty of recipes from the book and they're absolutely amazing!
Review: A lovely book, but see review... - It was a gift for someone who has every cookbook under the sun and she liked it a lot. Very nice layout & design and the recipes are apparently very good. However, some of the recipe ingredients can be hard to find, even for a very experienced cook living in London where you can get almost anything. If you don't have access to a range of 'world foods' from local suppliers, you may need to look through the book thoroughly before you buy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Have ingredients to hand - you’ll want to start cooking straight away!
*by M***Y on 30 June 2019*

No-nonsense, packed to the brim with info and recipes, this 900+ page delight is styled beautifully too. So glad I bought it - so much better than Phaedon’s ‘The Book of Tapas’ (which is still good, but this is better).
