Salsa Daddy: Dip Your Way into Mexican Cooking

For a limited time we have copies signed by Rick Martinez.

This exuberantly inviting book opens up a spectrum of salsas, the creation of the award-winning author of Mi Cocina. 

Rick Martinez certainly knows traditional Mexican salsas, but it’s just as easy to find his own creations here. Most chapters focus on the method of making the salsa–smashed, chopped, blended, cooked, etc.—but there’s also one on on using them in everything from chilaquiles to cookies.

What kind of creativity do you get for indulging in Salsa Daddy?

• Ciruelas crujientes, tomatillos, red plums, and chicharrones

• Salsa Tejana, roasted peaches, charred habanero, and toasted pecans

• Mermelada picante de baya de verano, berries, ginger, and chile de arbol

• Salsa Bruja, gaujillo, rosemary, and vinegar

• Pipian Verde, pumpkin seeds, peanuts, and tomatillos

• Alfredo Rojo, chiles, crema, and lard

We’re willing to bet that most of those are not already in your repertoire.
