Book excerpt: From Chile-Glazed Pork Chops to Dos Leches Flan, Lourdes Castro offers authentic, no-fuss Mexican meals with clean, vibrant flavors that are the essence of great Mexican food. In Simply Mexican, Castro presents authentic recipes that don’t require a fortnight to prepare or extended shopping forays to find rare ingredients.

Simply Mexican features easy-to-prepare, fun-to-eat favorites with big flavors, such as Chicken Enchiladas with Tomatillo Sauce and Crab Tostadas. Once you have mastered the basics, Castro will guide you through more advanced Mexican mainstays such as adobo and mole, and show you how to make the most effortless savory and sweet tamales around. With cooking notes that highlight useful equipment, new ingredients, shortcut techniques, and instructions for advance preparation, Simply Mexican demystifies authentic Mexican meals so you can make them at home in a snap. “With this book Lourdes Castro has added a spark of creativity and simplicity to Mexican food that up until now had not yet been realized.

Highly recommended.” —Jonathan Waxman, chef/owner of Barbuto and West County Grill and author of A Great American Cook

A "raucous trip through the odd corners of our alphabet." —The New York Times Let's get real—the English language is bizarre. A might be for apple, but it's also for aisle and aeons. Why does the word "gnat" start with a G but the word "knot" doesn't start with an N? It doesn't always make sense, but don't let these rule-breaking silent letters defeat you! This whimsical, funky book from Raj Haldar (aka rapper Lushlife) turns the traditional idea of an alphabet book on its head, poking fun at the most mischievous words in the English language and demonstrating how to pronounce them. Fun and informative for word nerds of all ages!
