Jim Peyton's book is well-researched and thoroughly delicious. It places the glorious and varied cuisines of Mexico in a context that should appeal to both the food historian and the home cook.

Jim Peyton's third cookbook introduces a contemporary and richly varied style of cooking practiced in Mexico called nueva cocina mexicana. Nueva cocina mexicana ccombines the elegance of Mexican "court" cooking with traditional Mexican cuisine---maintaining the earthy, soul-nurturing appeal that has made Mexican cuisine one of the world's greatest culinary achievements.
