Los Barrios Family Cookbook by Diana Barrios Trevino

More than 140 recipes from San Antonio's favorite Tex-Mex restaurant, featuring dishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert (plus cocktails!).

Since 1979, Los Barrios restaurant in San Antonio, Texas--the heart of Tex-Mex cuisine--has been serving up casero, or home-style, cooking that has charmed food critics and earned an impressive following. Founded with a small investment and a lot of spirit, Los Barrios built its reputation on the authenticity of its cuisine. The Los Barrios Family Cookbook offers these reputation-making recipes--from simple but impressive traditional Mexican dishes, many of which have been handed down and perfected through the generations, to modern Tex-Mex favorites--to fans of Southwest cuisine across the country.

Included are recipes for Mexican essentials: Homemade Flour Tortillas, Tamales, and Pico de Gallo; Barrios family specialties, such as Mama Viola's Chicken Rice Soup and Acapulco-Style Ceviche; and the classics--Chiles Rellenos, Chalupas, and Enchiladas Verdes. All the recipes contain easy-to-find ingredients, and special cooking tips will help you prepare dishes at home that will be as delicious as those served in the restaurant. The Los Barrios Family Cookbook is a comprehensive and indispensable resource for food that explodes with flavor. ¡Buen provecho!

Diana Barrios Treviño and her brother, Louie Barrios, own and operate Los Barrios restaurant, which The New York Times praised as one of the top restaurants in the San Antonio area (although locals have known that for years). She regularly champions Tex-Mex cooking on the Today show, and has appeared on Good Morning America and FoodNation with Bobby Flay.
