A Minnesota review of Red or GreenNew Mexico Cuisine
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I cannot tell you how much I enjoy Clyde Casey's latest cooking book: 1007 - Red or Green New Mexico Cuisine is Clyde's newest publication. It is superb, interesting, scholastic, educational and very informative --- It is just outstanding. The author has a way of making you want to read his descriptions of New Mexico cooking - clear-cut and succinct. I especially enjoyed the section on New Mexico wines. I particularly got a kick out of his suggestion to keep ice cream along with milk and yogurt handy for those over zealous cookers. I probably would have said "it can't be done - if someone was to tell me that Clyde had published a new cooking book or New Mexico and those wonderful Southwestern flavors. - 1997 - Sassy Southwest Cooking - Vibrant New Mexico Foods. - 1994 - New Mexico Cooking - Southwestern Flavors of the Past and Present. All three books are a must for your Southwestern cookbook collestion.
I feel so much smarter!

I've lived in New Mexico 16 years and never could tell one chile from another! Now I get it, thanks to Mr. Casey. And, like the other reviewer, I didn't know a thing about wine. I always had to tell the waiters whether I wanted dry or sweet, and they had to recommend something. So I've learned about two things of which I've been totally ignorant! The bonus is all the wonderful recipes--favorite foods to order in a restaurant can now be prepared at home, such as chile rellenos and sopapillas! Thank you, Mr. Casey!
What a great book!

This was such a well written and concise book to follow. I really enjoyed the wines area and the history of New Mexico foods and beverages. I recommend this book to anyone looking to get a 'flavor' of the state!
