California Mexican-Spanish Cookbook e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. An announcement that my lesson for the day would be Spanish dishes, invariably brought record-breaking crowds in any city in the United States, and a demand for recipes induced me to search for the best to be found. My three years' stay in California has enabled me to learn how to prepare the very best dishes directly from the natives, both Mexican and Spanish. It is not generally known that Spanish dishes as they are known in California are really Mexican Indian dishes. Bread made of corn, sauces of chile peppers, jerked beef, tortillas, enchiladas, etc are unknown in Spain as native foods though the majority of Spanish people in California are as devoted to peppery dishes as the Mexicans themselves, and as the Mexicans Speak Spanish, the foods are commonly called Spanish dishes. When made properly, there is great merit in this class of foods and I have endeavored to select the very best recipes, and have revised them into correct proportions and practical methods of preparation. Many of the dishes are very delicious and will be found of great value for luncheon, entries, and a zest to various menus, and especially useful to those who desire to cater to the public. Please note the classification of sauces and dressings which eliminates a repetition of the same sauce in different dishes.
