Laura Esquivel's Like Water For Chocolate recipes

Post by Bigwig1973 »

I got this book a couple years ago and haven't read it yet but, from what I checked out, it appears that the book has a different recipe for each month/chapter. Have any you run across other books designed the same way? Has anyone tried any of the recipes? Some of them seemed tedious - shelling an insane amount of nuts to make a wedding cake, etc. But other recipes didn't seem so difficult. I notice that there aren't many Hispanic (forgive my ignorance if she is not technically Hispanic) writers that I know of, especially female, and so, I feel as if the book ought to be promoted.
