Our First Cookbook with your favorite Mexican dishes!
The Mexican Home Kitchen Cookbook
After almost 12 years of sharing authentic Mexican recipes with the world through this website, I am very excited to introduce my first cookbook, The Mexican Home Kitchen!
This has been a long wait for many of my readers, who throughout the years have repeatedly asked me when they would be able to see my recipes in print. I appreciate all of your kind support and patience, and I poured my heart into this book because of it.
TYPES OF MEXICAN RECIPES
With over 85 recipes ranging from salads, soups, main dishes, desserts, and even drinks, this book represents authentic home cooking as it’s found in Mexican homes. This is the type of cooking made by Mexican mothers and grandmothers, and I hope that many Mexicans living abroad can use this cookbook to reunite with their favorite childhood dishes.
Pre-Order Bonus

You will find all sorts of recipes in this cookbook, ranging from celebratory dishes like Mole Poblano to simple, every-day meals like Caldo de Pollo. With this book, you will embark on a trip through Mexico’s rich cuisine, enjoying delicious plates from all over the country, like Asado de Puerco from Nuevo Leon, Frijol con Puerco from Yucatan, and Pollo a la Veracruzana from Veracruz.
TRADITIONAL CLASSIC MEXICAN RECIPES
I’ve made sure to pack this cookbook with many of the classic dishes that come to mind when you think of traditional Mexican food, like Tamales, Enchiladas, Arroz Rojo, and Albondigas. To accompany all these meals, I’ve included recipes for all the Mexican basics, like tortillas, salsas, beans, and rice. I’ve also written a section dedicated to the Mexican Pantry, where readers can learn about all the vegetables, peppers, herbs, and other ingredients found in the pantries of Mexican homes and used to make the recipes in this book.
All of the recipes are written with easy-to-follow instructions and tips, and most of them include pictures, too. I wanted these recipes to be enjoyed by cooks of all skill levels, from beginners to experts. I hope you love the recipes in this book and share them with friends, family, and the next generations.

The Mexican Home Kitchen will be released on September 15, 2020, and is now available to pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, IndieBound, Books a Million, and other retailers in the USA. In Canada, you can find it at Amazon Canada and !ndigo. Once you receive your book, I would appreciate it if you left a review on Amazon.

Just preordered your book. Its my way of saying thank you for sharing your recipes. My parents are from different parts of Mexico. I didn’t get a chance to write down my mom’s recipes. So I always look to you for guidance when trying to make something my mom used to cook for us.
Mely Martínez
Hello Juan,
Thank you for your purchase. I hope you find some recipes that you remember from your mom's cooking. Saludos!

Is there a preferred vendor or platform? I’d like you to get more of the money I make.
Your site has been my first stop for Mexican recipes for years!

Hi Mely, I have many friends in CDMX and a refer to your recipes every week. I have preordered your cookbook for my personal use, but wonder if you will have a Spanish Language version of the cookbook as well? I would like to gift some of my Mexican friends with a copy in Espanol. Best of luck and thank you for being such a wonderful cook and author. Your recipes are my Bible for Mexican Cuisine.
Mely Martínez
Hello Rick,
Thank you for your kind words. We are considering the Spanish version of the book since there are many requests for it. As soon as I get news about it, I will let you know in the newsletter. Again thank you!

I'm so excited to receive your book! A student in my HS ESL class shared your website with me and I have referenced it for at least 20 recipes in the last 2 years! My Mexican husband and I have been learning how to make Mexican food through your blog so that we can keep cultural traditions alive in our multicultural family. Thanks for all you do! Congratulations on your much deserved book.
