Description - Tacos by Alex Stupak

Tacos is a deep dive into the art and craft of tacos. We start by making fresh tortillas, from corn, flour, and variations with innovative grains and flavors. We move into the world of salsas, from simple chopped condiments to an hours-long mole poblano that has flavor for days. We get to fillings, traditional and modern--from a pineapple-marinated carne al pastor to pastrami with mustard seeds. But we're not finished there, because wrapped up in this cookbook is an argument- Through these recipes, essays, and sumptuous photographs by Evan Sung, the 3-Michelin-star veteran makes the case that Mexican food should be as esteemed as the highest French cooking.
