Our Latin Table is a cookbook with a story. It tells
us of family celebrations, holidays and family cooks
who made each occasion memorable. It also tells
us of their journey to make a home in America when
they escaped Cuba and settled in New York. The
challenge was keeping their unique customs and
mixing them with the things they came to love
about America. We can learn so many lessons
from the Saralegui family about the importance
of family celebrations and the part food plays in our
families.
The section entitled "A Latin Pantry" is fantastic. You'll
learn of new ingredients and how to incorporate them
into your own family cooking. The celebrations are unique
and festive, as are the menus throughout the book. I've
seen many cookbooks divided into menus that simply
didn't convey the reasoning behind the choices. Our Latin
Table explains the traditions and history behind the dishes,
but in a friendly and fun manner. You won't get bogged
down with too much information, but it's not just page
after page of menus either. It's a mixture of recipes, tidbits
and tips along with pictures that bring the celebrations alive.
I really enjoyed Our Latin Table, and look forward to planning
our next unique family celebration using it's ideas!
