Event

The Cookbook Club: Josefina Velasquez de Leon
Each month a significant cookbook will be chosen for discussion and hands-on cooking.

In July, it's "Mexican Cook Book: Devoted to American Homes" by Josefina Vasquez de Leon, 1947.

Josefina Vasquez de Leon was an entrepreneurial author and teacher who traveled throughout the Mexican Republic holding cooking classes and collecting regional recipes. From the 1930s to 1960s, she wrote and published over 150 cookbooks on topics ranging from cake decorating to cooking for the infirm. She ran a cooking school in Mexico City, hosted her own TV show when television was brand new to Mexico, wrote a magazine column, and was regularly interviewed on the radio.

In 1947, De Leon wrote the bilingual "Mexican Cook Book: Devoted to American Homes. Authentic Recipes from Every Region of the Mexican Republic," the first Mexican cookbook published in the United States, introducing the complexity of traditional Mexican cuisine (not Tex-Mex or Cal-Mex) to an American audience

Join Maite to discuss this cookbook and prepare a 6-course meal adapted from its recipes.
