5.0 out of 5 stars after leaving home i can now cook like my momma did, June 6, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: South Texas Mexican Cookbook (Hardcover)

Ms Garza didn't experiment-she is right on track with this authentic book full of flavors known widely to the latin/hispanics. Some recipes might require additional seasoning/flavoring (ie cumin, salt,etc)but don't deviate too much. Her spanish rice is the closest thing to mommas. highly recommended and i have the first printing when it was $8.95.

5.0 out of 5 stars South Texas Meican Cookbook, December 8, 2003

V. M. Perkins "vmperkins" (Baytown, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: South Texas Mexican Cookbook (Hardcover)

Ms. Garza, I want to personally thank you for putting a book together that has all my childhood food recipes together. The food is exactly how I remember my mom's cooking. I have also purchased this book as gifts, so my friends can also pass this wonderful traditional food on to their families and friends. Many Thanks

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Mexican food, not something from a frozen box, January 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: South Texas Mexican Cookbook (Hardcover)

This book was gift when my family was transferred from Houston, Tx to New York State. Enables us to still have good down home mexican dishes that just don't exist north of the mason dixon line.
