"I love that this fine portrait of New Mexican foods and flavors includes bits of history as well as profiles of producersalong with the mouthwatering recipes. After all, what would New Mexican food be without New Mexican farmers, salsa makers, cooks, wine-makers and all the rest. The dish, in fact, is a big one!"

“Dishing Up New Mexico is much more than exceptional and exotic recipes or a paean to the food-to-table phenomena. It is filled with brief vignettes of culinary styles and innovative entrepreneurs, and “peppered” with historical and cultural facts illustrative of many aspects of New Mexico’s unique agricultural heritage. Beautiful imagery combined with wonderful story telling make this book well worth owning.”
