Hendrik Varju is a cooking instructor who specializes in Mexican cuisine. While he lives near Toronto, Canada, his mother was born in Guadalajara, Mexico, so Hendrik spent his entire childhood cooking and eating authentic Mexican food. Hendrik now runs close to 100 cooking classes per year through his cooking instruction business called Passion for Food. Hendrik also specializes in hosting "Mexican Dinner Parties", which is, coincidentally, the name of his first cookbook.
A message from Hendrik:
When you buy a new cookbook and it has few pictures inside, I'm sure you're just as disappointed as I am. As they say, "pictures say a thousand words". Plus, let's face it; we eat with our eyes. I feel that photos of the various dishes in the book are necessary not only as inspiration for you to try the dishes in your kitchen, but also to tell you how each dish should look when plated. So I decided that this cookbook would have a photo of virtually every dish in the book. I only left out photos of a couple of salsa recipes because, frankly, most salsas look alike. In total, this book has 60 recipes in the menu sections and a couple more in the "Techniques Pages". All told, though, there are over 100 photos because many show you Mexican cooking techniques as well. Cookbooks with this many photos are very expensive to produce, but I hope you'll agree that the somewhat higher than usual cost is well worth it to have the extra guidance of clear photography.
This cookbook is not just about the recipes. It also teaches you some of the core Mexican cooking techniques that are common to many recipes. And since the recipes are organized into six elaborate dinner party menus, I've also included a "Strategy Page" for each menu that helps you keep things organized in preparation for a dinner party. These strategy pages tell you what you can do the day before the party and the morning of the party in order to get a head start. And they also tell you what should be done last minute in order for the food to be served at its best. Some readers will decide that putting on a dinner party with such a large menu is a little beyond their skill level. Feel free to divide up dinner party menus into something more manageable, perhaps offering just one appetizer instead of three. And, of course, you don't have to follow the dinner party format at all if you don't want to. You can simply use the recipes individually as in an ordinary cookbook. However, once you have achieved a higher level of confidence in your Mexican cooking you might decide to cook a full dinner party menu when a special occasion comes up. Enlist your friends and family to help you. After all, that is what this cookbook is about. It is meant to inspire you to enjoy food and cooking with the people you love.
You'll also notice from the front cover of the cookbook that over 95% of the recipes are "naturally" gluten free. What that means is that Mexican food very often just happens to be gluten free. So please don't fear that my recipes are not going to taste as good just because of this. I did not need to make drastic changes to recipes to make them this way. It just so happens that Mexican is one of the best cuisines in the world that uses little or no gluten. So for the gluten sensitive cooks and foodies of the world, you'll love this cookbook.

Store description
Seit über 30 Jahren handeln wir mit Büchern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter Bücher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen Bücher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderbücher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen.

Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die Möglichkeit, große Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbestände werden von uns professionell auf Qualitätsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgfältig für den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken Büchern ein zweites Leben.…

Right of withdrawal for consumers
(A consumer is any natural person who enters into a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor self-employed).

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Buchpark, Trebbin, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
