From Ingrid Hoffmann, international food and television
personality, restaurateur, and host of the Cooking Channel’s
Simply Delicioso and Univision’s Delicioso, comes a fully
illustrated, easy-to-follow cookbook that offers a healthy
spin on modern Latin cuisine. Latin D’lite features more than 150 classic Latin recipes,
all with Ingrid’s signature touches: • Adding bright, bold flavor to every dish with herbs,
spices, and chiles. • Introducing readers to ingredients such as pumpkin seeds,
green and ripe plantains, ají amarillo (Peruvian yellow
chile pepper), and malanga (a popular South American root
vegetable), along with how and when to use them. • Offering healthful ingredient substitutions and cooking
tips such as using lime juice as a coleslaw dressing instead
of mayonnaise. Or making codfish balls from fresh, rather
than dried, cod, then baking them instead of frying them.
Using frozen mango and a touch of rosewater and white wine
for a light sorbet. • Time-saving prep secrets and presentation ideas. At the end of each chapter, there is one indulgent recipe to
allow the occasional splurge while maintaining these healthy
changes. Delicious dishes such as Latin-style Fried Chicken
or Ingrid’s take on a decadent lobster sandwich should be
enjoyed every once in a while! A serious food lover who also understands the importance of
balancing a healthful lifestyle, Ingrid offers a fresh,
energetic take on Latin foods—from breakfast to appetizers
and snacks, to soups and salads, to entrées, cocktails, and
desserts.
