The Gracias Madre Cookbook: Bright, Plant-Based Recipes from Our Mexi-Cali Ki...

Product Overview

Format: Hardcover

The fresh, bright flavors of Mexico and Southern California, adapted for the
plant-based home cook, from one of L.A.’s favorite restaurants.It’s no
surprise that Gracias Madre has its roots in giving gratitude. Gracias Madre
means thank you, Mother in Spanish, and the phrase encapsulates the mission of
this Cali-Mexican eatery, which is to serve the L.A. community and give people
fresh food made with integrity from ingredients grown with love. Go figure
that, in California, love is a taco. Mexican food is, in many ways, one of the
original vegan cuisines. Before the Spanish conquistadores brought with them
new ingredients, including many dairy products, the Mexican pantry centered on
what’s called “The Three Sisters” in Mesoamerican culture: beans, corn, and
chiles. By embracing these workhorses, layering in chile- and spice-filled
salsas and moles, and experimenting with creative whole-food twists on
traditional meat fillings (mushroom carnitas and al pastor, jackfruit mixiote,
dehydrated hibiscus) as well as nut-based cheeses (cashew crema and queso
blanco, almond cotija), Gracias Madre’s menu is filled with well-loved Cali-
Mexican classics. With 125 simple, entirely plant-based recipes for the home
cook, including Calabaza and Onion Quesadillas, Coliflor with Cashew Nacho
Cheese, and Coffee Flan, The Gracias Madre Cookbook is a vegetable-forward
dive into one of the world’s most delicious cuisines.
