A highly recommended sampler of Yucatan cuisine
Foods Of The Maya is a highly recommended sampler of Yucatan cuisine that will intrigue any who enjoy regional cookbooks. Foods Of The Maya focuses on local versions of Mayan cooking, from Garlic Pork with Rice and Black Beans to an orange juice/allspice seasoned Motul Chicken. No photos, but the recipes don't need them.

University of New Mexico Press: Shame on You!
If this is the little book published by The University of New Mexico Press, well, I have never in 70 years read a more poorly written book. Apparently the U. of NM Press DOES NOT BELIEVE IN PROOFING OR CHECKING DATA FOR CORRECTNESS.

This review is from: Foods of the Maya: A Taste of the Yucatán (Paperback)
If this is the little book published by The University of New Mexico Press, well, I have never in 70 years read a more poorly written book. Apparently the U. of NM Press DOES NOT BELIEVE IN PROOFING OR CHECKING DATA FOR CORRECTNESS. Within 20 minutes of opening this book and flipping through it, I found over 35 mistakes and ridiculous entries, i.e., non-existent food names. How can you trust such a poorly written/edited book to provide you with accurate recipes?
If you are foolish enough to try out ANY of these recipes, you do so at your peril! I contacted The Press and they brushed me off - so............. Christian Randolph |
