This luxurious cookbook is filled with the authentic dishes that reflect iconic artist Frida 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; enchiladas, chilaquiles, 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. Frida Kahlo had a special love of Mexican cuisine, especially that of her mother’s birthplace - Oaxaca. Frida loved Mexican dishes such as mole, tamales and enchiladas and savored her trips to the market in Coyocan. Her famous "Mole Poblano" recipe, a chocolate-chili sauce, indispensable to Mexican cuisine, now hangs in the Frida Kahlo Museum in Mexico City.
