Book Overview

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Get your daily dose of vitamin T--the unofficial Mexican food group that celebrates tacos, tortas, tamales, and more--with over 100 delicious recipes that add a fun twist to these classic street foods.

Tacos, tostadas, tamales, and other vitamin T favorites represent the culinary experience of street foods across Mexican foodways. In Vitamina T, celebrated chef Fermín Núñez and masa-purveyor-to-the-stars Jorge Gaviria take us on a journey through the sizzling streets of Mexico to show us how we can capture some of the magic of this cuisine in our home kitchens. Explore the beautiful sights and bold flavors of a late-night taqueria, a charcoal-burning clay comal teeming with hoja-santa-wrapped tetelas, and all of the tamales at all of the times. Vitamina T features over 100 mouthwatering Mexican staples as well as contemporary twists:
  • Tacos: Al Pastor, Barbacoa, and Carnitas Tacos
  • Tamales: Bean and Cheese, Duck Confit Tamales (with a delicious Mole Negro)
  • Tostadas: Tinga, Beet-Avocado, and Red Snapper Ceviche Tostadas
  • Tortas: Butternut Squash in Chile Colorado, Brisket "de la Barda," and Cubana Tortas
  • Todo Lo Demás: Sopes, Gorditas, Flautas, Chilaquiles, and more

These dishes are emblematic of what makes Mexico a culinary cornerstone, and Vitamina T translates them into approachable recipes for home cooks. Through traditional techniques, practices developed by Fermín and Jorge, and recipes for any occasion, this book has everything you need to bring an all-day Mexico City street food crawl into your own home.
