More than 140 recipes from San Antonio's favorite Tex-Mex restaurant, featuring dishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert (plus cocktails!).

Since 1979, Los Barrios restaurant in San Antonio, Texas-the heart of Tex-Mex cuisine-has

been serving up casero, or home-style, cooking that has charmed food critics and

earned an impressive following. Founded with a small investment and a lot of spirit,

Los Barrios built its reputation on the authenticity of its cuisine. The Los Barrios

Family Cookbook offers these reputation-making recipes-from simple but impressive

traditional Mexican dishes, many of which have been handed down and perfected through

the generations, to modern Tex-Mex favorites-to fans of Southwest cuisine across

the country.

Included are recipes for Mexican essentials- Homemade Flour Tortillas,

Tamales, and Pico de Gallo; Barrios family specialties, such as Mama Viola's Chicken

Rice Soup and Acapulco-Style Ceviche; and the classics-Chiles Rellenos, Chalupas,

and Enchiladas Verdes.

All the recipes contain easy-to-find ingredients, and special

cooking tips will help you prepare dishes at home that will be as delicious as those

served in the restaurant. The Los Barrios Family Cookbook is a comprehensive and

indispensable resource for food that explodes with flavor.

Buen provecho!

Reviews for Los Barrios Family Cookbook: Tex-Mex Recipes from the Heart of San Antonio

I'm always looking for new tastes and cuisines in different regions of the country, especially those that involve local culture. We went in search of big Tex-Mex cooking, which San Antonio is known for. I chose Los Barrios from the many Tex-Mex restaurants in the city because I fell in love with Diana Barrios Trevino and the entire Barrios family. . . . The dishes they have created contain amazing combinations and flavors that many people don't get to experience. I wanted the rest of the country to sample what I was tasting. I wanted people to realize that true Tex-Mex cooking isn't just fajitas and burritos. Now, with the Los Barrios Family Cookbook, I am excited to know that people across the country can easily prepare and taste all of the delicious dishes I experienced on my visit. Whether you like your food hot, medium, or mild--and these recipes have it all--you'll love the food in this book. --from the Foreword by Emeril Lagasse I m always looking for new tastes and cuisines in different regions of the country, especially those that involve local culture.
