Cookbooks
In this exciting, one-of-a-kind cookbook, radio and TV
personality Angie Martinez and acclaimed chef Angelo Sosa
join together to offer you over 100 innovative and delicious
recipes that blend the art of Latin cooking with healthy
eating. Based on the sexy, spicy, and satisfying foods they
cherish from their Cuban, Dominican, and Puerto Rican
backgrounds, Angie and Angelo remix classic recipes like
ropa viejo and arroz con pollo so everyone can enjoy eating
the food they’ve grown up with, but without the guilt. As Angie writes in her introduction, this is not a diet
book! Instead she is thrilled to share her personal passion
about clean and healthy living with the Latin community.
Despite its bold flavors and fresh ingredients, Latin
cuisine has never exactly been known as "light." Once Angie
and Angelo combined forces, they knew they could share a
balance of the old and the new in dishes like Shrimp and
Papaya Ceviche and Silken Soymilk Flan, or beverages such as
the No-Guilt Mojito, alongside deep-rooted family recipes
like Angie’s grandmother’s Crispy Tostones and Angelo’s tía
Carmen’s Dominican Fish Stew. There’s something for everyone
in this beautifully photographed cookbook, whether you’re
vegetarian, vegan, gluten free or an omnivore looking for
lighter fare. In the first chapter, Angelo’s Healthy Kitchen, you’ll read
about smart ingredient substitutions, alternative cooking
methods, and subtle reductions in sugar, fat and sodium that
create healthier food without compromising the integrity of
Latin cuisine's celebrated, iconic tastes. These simple yet
flavorful recipes are for any level of experienced cook,
with helpful notes ranging from kitchen prep tips to
nutritional advice to ingredient tidbits. With its blend of innovative and traditional recipes,
emphasis on health-conscious eating, and fun stories from
two accomplished and influential members of the Latin
American community, this vibrant volume is a welcome
addition to anyone who enjoys Latin flavors.
