My Mexico is a celebration of Mexico’s rich heritage, designed for today’s kitchens. In this deeply personal and evocative cookbook, we explore the soul of Mexican food—where each dish tells a story, each ingredient carries a legacy, and every recipe invites you to connect with the essence of Mexico’s diverse regions, history, and people.

From the simple joy of freshly made tortillas to the complex, bold flavors of mole, this book honors the time-honored traditions of Mexican cooking while embracing modern techniques and creative twists. With deep respect for the cultural roots of these recipes, My Mexico offers a new perspective on beloved classics, from tacos al pastor and cochinita pibil to innovative dishes like Birria Ramen and Churros with Matcha Cream Filling. You’ll discover how today’s chefs are reinventing Mexican food, blending old and new, and paying homage to the flavors that have shaped generations.

But My Mexico is more than just a collection of recipes—it’s a journey. Each chapter brings you closer to the heart of Mexican cuisine, weaving together personal stories, family traditions, and the cultural significance of food in everyday life. You’ll find inspiration in the comforting warmth of a bowl of pozole shared at family gatherings, the festive joy of tamales made for special occasions, and the smoky aroma of street vendors grilling elotes on a bustling Mexican street corner.

With over 100 recipes ranging from soulful comfort dishes to creative, modern interpretations, this cookbook will inspire you to cook with love, honor your roots, and embrace the ever-evolving spirit of Mexican cuisine.

Let every bite tell a story, and may these flavors live on, eternally.
