Review: Machete Cooks! - This has way more than tacos in it. I haven't had time to try any recipes yet, I just wanted to be the first with a Machete reference. That confessed, just thumbing through the book, I would look at a recipe and think "Oh, I need to try that". Some of the recipes just scream CALIFORNIA, like the Roasted Cauliflower Taco recipe. Update: This is a very impressive cookbook. Deceptively so. Every component described here is easily within the grasp of the home cook and the recipes have been scaled for family dining. But when it ultimately comes down to creating the final presented dish, these are composed restaurant dishes designed by professional chefs. Let me give you an example. Chicken Tikka Burritos. There is a "Master Recipe" for Chicken Tikka. Anyone who can boil water could follow this recipe. So what do we need for the Chicken Tikka Burrito? Chicken Tikka (p. 88), of course. flour tortillas, shredded Mexican-style cheese, Spanish Rice (p. 171), Basic Black Beans (p. 170), Pico de Gallo (p. 48), Salsa Roja (p. 53), Escabeche-Mint Crema (p. 58). So to build 4 Trejo Chicken Tikka burritos, you need to make 6 recipes provided in this book. None of them are difficult - some are very easy. This is the way professional chefs in a restaurant setting build dishes that are so good that they can keep the restaurant in business. For the home cook, this is a day's worth of cooking to make 4 burritos. The recipes here look delicious and there will be many Saturdays in the next year when I will spend the time necessary to make all the components for one of these dishes. I expect the leftovers to be amazing. I plan on doubling the Chicken Tikka recipe because there's no way I will be able to make the burritos before I've eaten half of it. Not all of the recipes are so complicated. The Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Red Chimichurri don't require any additional recipes. Likewise the Shrimp Tostadas. The Bacon Cheeseburger Tacos only require "Gringo Seasoning" (p. 116) which is a simple blend of dry herbs and spices which a sensible person might make a few ounces of ahead of time and store in a jar. In addition to his chain of taco restaurants, Mr Trejo has a donut shop (Trejo's Donuts and Coffee). He includes recipes for the donuts in this book. He ends the book with a collection of beverage recipes which leans rather heavily toward margaritas but also has horchata, micheladas and strawberry lemonade. This really is a terrific book. Highly recommended.
