## Description

The host of the highly popular and award-winning PBS show Pati's Mexican Table shares everyday Mexican dishes, from the traditional to creative twists.
Pati Jinich has a mission. She’s out to prove that Mexican home cooking is quicker and far easier than most Americans think.
Surprising in their simplicity and freshness, Pati's recipes incorporate produce and grains. Most important, they fit perfectly into an everyday family cooking schedule and use just a handful of ingredients, most of which are already in your pantry. Many are homey specialties that Pati learned from her mother and grandmother, some are creative spins on classics, while others are not well known outside of Mexico.
Dishes like Chicken à la Trash (it’s delicious!), a one-pot meal that Pati gleaned from a Mexican restaurant cook; Mexican Meatballs with Mint and Chipotle; Sweet and Salty Salmon; and Mexican-Style Pasta can revitalize your daily repertoire. You’ll find plenty of vegetarian fare, from Classic Avocado Soup, to Divorced Eggs (with red and green salsa), to Oaxaca-Style Mushroom and Cheese Quesadillas.
Your friends and family will enjoy Tomato and Mozzarella Salad with Pickled Ancho Chile Vinaigrette; Crab Cakes with Jalapeño Aioli; and Chicken Tinga—(you can use rotisserie chicken), which makes a tasty filling for tortas and tostadas. Pati also shares exciting dishes for the holidays and other special occasions, including Mexican Thanksgiving Turkey with Chorizo, Pecan, Apple, and Corn Bread Stuffing; Spiral-Cut Beef Tenderloin; and Red Pozole (“a Mexican party in a bowl”), which she served on her wedding day. Desserts like Triple Orange Mexican Wedding Cookies, Scribble Cookies (sandwich cookies filled with chocolate), and little Apricot-Lime Glazed Mini Pound Cakes are sophisticated yet simple to make.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Four-Part Jewel
*by  on Reviewed in the United States March 17, 2013*

I preordered this book the day Amazon offered it, expecting a collection of recipes from Pati's PBS programs. When I started reading it, the recipes were the third thing I admired -- right after the numerous Mexican Cook's Tricks and the extensive descriptions of Mexican ingredients. This is my third Mexican cookbook (after Diana Kennedy and Roberto Santibanez), but it should be everyone's introduction to Mexican flavors, techniques, and gusto because it works so well on four levels, each of which is worth the price of the book:1. Mexican Cook's Tricks -- There is a "trick" at the end of most of the recipes. They are short and most apply more broadly than just the subject recipe: how to cook an egg, prepare enchiladas, marinate meats, prepare chiles. These are as addicting as nachos (or Margaritas): You can't eat just one. After you finish one, you poke around to find more.2. Mexican Ingredients -- What stops you from reading the "cook's tricks?" There are about 60 green-highlighted sidebars, most of which describe a Mexican ingredient and how it is prepared and enjoyed: tamarind, corn versus flour tortillas, several varieties of chiles, hibiscus flowers, cinnamon, and buying avocados. A few succinctly describe cooking processes for rice and beans. By the time you've read eight or ten of these sidebars you want to cook.3. Recipes -- The recipes are for home cooking. This is the food that Pati, a busier-than-we-are soccer mom, serves her family. They are not the traditional servant-prepared recipes that Diana Kennedy features. They are contemporary flavors that use ingredients you can find in a large supermarket with a broad selection of Latin products or, better still, one of the small stores that serve Mexican/Central American immigrants you can find even in small towns. I've made several recipes (and others on her website) and have always had good results. The recipes are flexible and you can substitute pork for beef or adjust the chiles and other flavors to taste. One tip: It's efficient to prepare meals from the book over consecutive nights so you can re-purpose the food as Pati does -- salsas, beans, meats, tortillas.4. Gusto -- What draws these three elements together is Pati herself. Her culinary philosophy and approach to cooking are lively, fresh, and magnetic. The introductions to each recipe are informative and personal and her advice and judgements are level-headed. You can benefit from adapting her style, regardless of what you cook -- Mexican, Chinese, or American.If you want to cook Mexican for your family, order this book and buy an avocado and a few chiles. But read the book first to learn how to buy the avocado and handle the chiles.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Big Fan!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States December 30, 2025*

This was a Christmas Gift for my husband who is a big fan of Pati's and the food and meals she prepared. We have watched her for years on PBS and the Cooking channel. It was high-time he got one of her Cookbooks. It is filled with delicious recipes that are easy to follow. We were surprised at how simple making delicious Mexican food really ease. Needless to say, he was thrilled with the cookbook and so am I.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fresh Mex
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 6, 2013*

I recently discovered Pati by watching The Chew cooking show, she was a guest and made a wonderful Chicken Aztec Casserole, (in the book), I made it for dinner that evening and it was a huge hit. I immediately purchased her book and have since made Chicken Enchiladas in Salsa Verde, yummy! Chicken A La Trash, the trash comes from the strange list of ingredients that come together to make something very wonderful tasting, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, poblano chiles, prunes, yes prunes, and of course chicken, ya gotta try it. Sticky Chicken with Apricots, Tamarind, and Chipotle, another good one. Crispy Chicken Milanese, I've made this one 3 times with her Green Rice. Mahimahi in Creamy Poblano Sauce, this one is especially good if, like me, your family doesn't care for fish, the Poblano Sauce helps with the fishy taste. I've also made this using Snapper, works just as well. Her Blissful Corn Totre (kind of like a moist corn bread) can be a side dish or have it for breakfast with powdered sugar sprinkled on top, it's great! Sauteed Zucchini with Poblano Peppers, one of the many vegetable sides in the book. Also included in the book are Salads,Soups, Vegetarian, Meat dishes, Desserts, Drinks, Breakfasts, Tacos, Quesadillas, Salsas, and more. I plan to do the Julie Julia thing with this book, everything looks and sounds so good. If your looking for authentic fresh made Mexican, and not American Mexican give this book a try. Nothing so far has been any harder to make than your average intermediate recipe. Try to catch her cooking show on PBS, it's on twice a week, Tues and Thurs, she's a delight and it will help with things in her book. I Love this book, and my family loves the result!
