I would make so many of these recipes, there's no question I will eventually own this book. I read another review where a person remarked on wishing the book was organized differently "for those who don't read lengthy recipe introductions" that literally made me throw my hands up in disbelief! The "lengthy" few paragraphs of family or recipe history as well as the author's rationale for her personal changes are the most charming part of this book. What those people who skip straight to the lists of ingredients and directions are missing! ( ) The Homesick Texan has been one of my favorite food blogs for years. I started using it when I was still in Texas, but now that I've left, it's an absolutely wonderful resource for cooking like I'm back in the Homeland. Fain is a native Texan, so she knows how the food is supposed to taste and doesn't shy from wonderful TexMex or Mexican food or cut corners to make it easier or more-appealing to those who aren't used to the food. Some of the recipes are from the blog, some are new, but so far I haven't had a problem with any of them. They are easy to follow and there are pictures (an absolute must). If she writes anymore cookbooks, I will get them all. The Homesick Texan has been one of my favorite food blogs for years.

If she writes anymore cookbooks, I will get them all. I was born and raised in Texas (Dallas) and these dishes are spot on. It's a big state, so there's variety, but The Homesick Texan covers most of it, possibly not enough coverage of the southeast portion-- like adaptations of deep south/Louisiana cooking. I enjoy the commentary on the recipes and have tried 5 recipes so far. They all worked well and ranged from pretty good to delicious. Some of the ingredients are not findable here in Northern California, and I imagine even fewer would be available farther north and east. The pictures are lovely. The best part is that the dishes presented are both downhome and upscale-- they are authentic, not just standard fancy dishes with chipotle added randomly, but they do not call for Velveeta in the queso, there's a nice mix of vegetable dishes along with the meats. I recommend this book to most people who can cook, like spicy food, and can get chiles. You don't have to be Texan to enjoy it. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
