5 recipe books you must have

There are world-class chefs inviting us into their kitchens to learn how to cook their best dishes. Here are five high-quality cookbooks with which you can impress any guest. 1.- Larousse: The Classics of Mexican Cuisine Author: Ricardo Muñoz Zurita The renowned chef of the Azules restaurants (Azul y Oro, Azul Condesa, and Azul Histórico) is passionate about Mexican cuisine. In his role more as a researcher than a chef, he immersed himself in the traditions and recipes of the various regions of the Aztec land to implement them in this book, which is a must-have for anyone wanting to prepare traditional Mexican food. This book contains over 100 of the most important recipes from the country, from mole to enchiladas, including seafood and meats. Favorite recipe: classic tortilla soup. For the diet: Veracruz-style fish.   2.- Arzak: Recipes Author: Juan Mari Arzak This man is a genius. It is enough to say that he has been named Chef of the Century by Restaurant magazine in London and is simply known as the father of modern cuisine. Within his restaurant in Spain, the rule was to innovate and provide a sensory experience to the diner, resulting in foams, gels, aromas, and other protagonists of evolutionary cooking. Now, this type of food is not for everyone, and there is no need to worry because if Arzak has made it very clear, it is that what matters most has always been the fundamentals; he is a fervent lover of local products, and he demonstrates this in this cookbook of simple, tasty, and surprising preparations. Favorite recipe: lamb chops with couscous and confit vegetables. For the diet: smoked salmon crepes with yogurt and orange sauce.   3.- Jamie at Home Author: Jamie Oliver If you don't know this young English chef, you might be a bit lost. This man has revolutionized fast food and has dedicated himself to changing the diet in thousands of school cafeterias across America to achieve better nutrition for children. His passion is simple, tasty cooking with Mediterranean touches. The interesting thing is that his recipes work for all seasons of the year, and he recommends substitutes for ingredients that may not be found in your country. Inside, you will find more than 100 recipes and a whole guide to create your home garden if you want to get your hands dirty. Favorite recipe: asparagus and potato tart. For the diet: tomato salad.   4.- Vegetarian Author: Patricia Quintana This chef is one of the pillars of contemporary Mexican cuisine. Through research, she has become a living encyclopedia of recipes, tips, and pours it all into this book of delicious, easy, and economical preparations. The special thing is that everything you find in this cookbook will be vegetarian, so if you follow a meat-free diet or simply chose this type of diet in your life, here you have more than 100 recipes with photographs and explanations to broaden the animal-free alternatives. Favorite recipe: cold watermelon soup. For the diet: purslane in adobo.   5.- Miscellaneous For this last recommendation, I preferred to give you a selection of specialized books dedicated to recipes for those who suffer from conditions such as diabetes or high cholesterol.
