Rick Bayless's Mexican Kitchen: Capturing the Vibrant flavors of a World-Class Cuisine

By Rick Bayless

This is a versatile sauce - I often make this as a table salsa served with chips or tacos or as more of sauce for eggs or chicken. I usually use the dried, tan chipotle chilies and fresh tomatoes roasted under the broiler. It's delicious!

Red Tomato Rice

Not just rice! This is a flavorful addition to any Mexican plate. I use cilantro in place of the parsley and 1/2 chicken broth, 1/2 water (personal preference/less sodium).

Love this dish with or without the "gnocchi". I have made it with black beans and pinto and agree with Rick that black are the way to go. We enjoy it with Ricks Red Tomato Rice (p. 174) and enchiladas or almost any of his chicken or pork dishes.

Gingersnaps

Terrific cookie with just the right "snap". Spicy and delicious, this cookie gets crunchier the next day but not hard. Also, great warm out of the oven.

Rustic Potato Loaf

Love this bread. I have made it several times and though the dough sometimes varies (dry to very wet) it consistently comes out delicious. Great texture - moist and soft inside with a nice crispy crust.
