Items related to A Taste of Cuba
Cuban cuisine is an accumulation of methods and ingredients drawn from both the island's history and its natural resources, from the early influences of native Cuban Indians to the arrival of the Spaniards, and the imported African slaves bought over by the new colonists. "A Taste of Cuba" is a gastronomic tour of starters, soups, main dishes, side dishes and desserts using local produce and ingredients that contain mouth-watering spices and flavours so popular in the region.

Review:
"A glorious gastronomic tour of Cuba and its culinary history, with easy-to-follow-recipes for authentic dishes, illustrated not only by the expected 'gorgeous plate' type of photos, but also by wonderful original illustrations. Ximena Maier's artwork is realistic in content, yet whimsical in feeling, adding much to the allure of the book." Caribbean Compass"
