<p><b>From the Back Cover</b><br>Praise for "Truly Mexican"<P>"Roberto Santibanez is that rare bird--a great chef and a great teacher--and it's the combination of these talents that makes this book so wonderful. It's an excellent tutorial on Mexican sauces: the ingredients, the techniques, the multiple dishes you can make from each of them, as well as the lip-smacking side dishes that go with them. If you want to cook Mexican food at home more often--and who doesn't?--this is the book for you."<BR>--Sara Moulton, author of "Sara Moulton's Everyday Family Dinners"<P>""Truly Mexican" breathes the soul and spirit of Mexican cuisine. It is an exceptional book that discloses the essence of Mexican cuisine, from simple street foods like tacos to complex masterpieces like moles. An essential work for anyone who is passionate about this amazing cuisine."<BR>--Mark Miller, author of "The Great Chile Book, Tamales, Tacos, and other books"<P>"With this text, Chef Santibanez has moved the understanding of Mexican cuisine forward in a significant way. Although the recipes in this book are, by themselves, a wonderful collection, Roberto delivers them in a format that leaves the reader with true knowledge of the Mexican kitchen."<BR>--Mark Erickson, Certified Master Chef and Vice President-Dean of Culinary Education at The Culinary Institute of America<P>"Roberto Santibanez's excellent "Truly Mexican" is a book that should be on the shelves of home cooks who really want to know what Mexican food is all about."<BR>--Zarela Martinez, www.zarela.com</p>
