From the kitchen of a world-renowned chef comes this treasury of authentic Mexican recipes inspired by the painter Frida Kahlo and filled with mouthwatering photography.

Frida Kahlo was known for her love of her mother's birthplace-Oaxaca, and that love extended to their incredible cuisine. Frida loved dishes such as moletamales and enchiladas and savored trips to the market in Coyocan, the neighborhood of Mexico city she called home.

This luxurious cookbook is filled with authentic dishes that reflect Kahlo’s distinctive style. Saturated with color and flavor, it includes fundamental recipes for the building blocks of Mexican gastronomy—tortillas, moles, salsas, beans, chiles, and beverages—as well as classic dishes such as tacos with beef, pork and chicken; enchiladaschilaquiles, and posole; flan and tres leches cake.

Castellanos’ recipes are true to her own and Kahlo’s heritage, using traditional methods and ingredients that emphasize quality and taste over convenience foods.

In engaging texts, Castellano explores Kahlo’s relationship to food, as well as the historic importance of Mexican culinary arts in Kahlo’s work.

Fans of Kahlo’s art will gain a deeper understanding of her use of color and her connection to Mexican tradition. Anyone interested in authentic Mexican cooking will be drawn to the flavors and textures of Castellanos’ gorgeously illustrated recipes.
