Today I am going to skip Wash it down Wednesday because I want to talk about a gem that I found online last week. It is a cookbook written by my friend Teresa of Mexican Chocolate Lore and More. And why do I think this cookbook is a gem? Just take a look at the title and you tell me: Mi Chita’s Mexican Chocolate Recipes. Yes, that’s right, a whole book of chocolate recipes.
Teresa explains that Chita is how she and her brothers called her abuelita (grandma) when they were little. The aromas and flavors that came out of her abuelita’s kitchen are still in Teresa’s mind and she share them with us, along with other recipes she has created and found, in this delicious cookbook. Teresa included a short, but very informative, history of the origins of chocolate. Now it is believed that chocolate has been around since 2600 B.C.!
From the traditional Mexican champurrado to Chocolate Martini and from Mexican chocolate brownies to Mexican chocolate Kalhua cake every drink and dessert recipe in this cookbook will open up your appetite for Mexican chocolate. Teresa and Robert Cordell take us to a world a la Willy Wonka where chocolate pours out of every page. Don’t worry, you can always start your dieta mañana.
This Ecookbook can be purchased at Teresa’s chocolate blog for the prize of $3.95. That’s what I call a great deal!
¡Buen provecho!
