1: Daisy Cooks: Latin Flavors that will Rock your World
Great variety of basic Latin Dishes. I have notoriously been bad at making rice (either over or under-cooking), but with Daisy's recipe, I have finally prevailed in creating the perfect pot of basic rice!
Very tasty and easy to understand instructions, as well as useful explanation of ingredients and substitutions if some "exotic" flavors can't be found.

2: one week five dishes
Daisy's my new best friend. The basics are terrific. I roasted chicken, stuffed peppers, yellowed rice, froze baggies of sofrito and made Grandma's chicken and spaghetti. Very good--all of them. Got the flan and empanadas in sight for this weekend. Also think we'll like the stuffed eggplant. I will make all of these dishes again and again. Only thing better would be for Daisy to do the dishes.

3: Daisy Made Me a Convert to Latin Cuisine!!!
I purchased this book after seeing Daisy cook on PBS. Yeah, she's a bit on the perky side but so is her cooking. I made her father's recipe for Pot Roast and it was a whole new experience...a good one!! I really like achiote oil and her recipe for sofrito as well. One of my favorites is her recipe for Chicken with Figs(Pollo Con Higos). Other than eating Fig Newtons as a kid, I had never tasted a fig. This was just wonderful!! Her recipe for Rice with Pigeon Peas is a major keeper!! I also served her Puerto Rican Egg Nog to guests at Christmas and everyone who tried it wanted the recipe. I am so pleased with this book that I grew cilantro, ajices dulces and habanero chiles in my garden this summer. In a separate part of the house, I grew culantro so that I could make Daisy's sofrito recipe using authentic ingredients. That should tell you how much I enjoy her and her wonderful recipes. Both are treasures!!!
