The long-awaited, best-selling cookbook from Mely Martinez, The
Mexican Home Kitchen, compiles the traditional home-style dishes
enjoyed every day in Mexican households, with influences from
states like Tamaulipas, Nuevo Leon, Veracruz, Puebla, Estado de
Mexico, and Yucatan. *As featured in The New York Times, New York
Magazine, People Magazine, The Smithsonian Magazine, Eater,
Epicurious, Chowhound, The Kitchn, Prevention, and Taste of Home*
Illustrated with stunning photography, this book includes recipes
for stews, soups, and side dishes, along with famous dishes like
mole, enchiladas, picadillo, and milanesa, and is rounded out with
delicious salsas, drinks, and desserts. For Mely Martinez, Mexican
cooking has always been about family, community, and tradition.
Born and raised in Tampico, Mely started helping in the kitchen at
a very young age, since she was the oldest daughter of eight
children, and spent summers at her grandmother's farm in the state
of Veracruz, where part of the daily activities included helping
grind the corn to make masa. Mely started her popular blog, Mexico
in My Kitchen, to share the recipes and memories of her home so
that her son can someday recreate and share these dishes with his
own family. In the meantime, it has become the go-to source for
those looking for authentic home-style Mexican cooking. Recreate
