Title: Corazón contento
Description: "Madeline Gallego Thorpe grew up in Tucson, Arizona, in the home of her grandparents in the late 1940s and 1950s. Surrounded by extended family and Tuscon's large Hispanic community, she absorbed the rich culture along the border between Arizona and the Mexican state of Sonora." "This book is filled with the distinctive regional recipes, recuerdos (family stories) and dichos (sayings) that Gallego Thorpe grew up with. It also contains the herbal remedios (remedies) her grandmother used for healing, as well as recipes for more widely known foods such as tamales, enchiladas, and posole. It is a fascinating record of a way of life and a way of cooking that can enrich the historical and cultural awareness of all Americans."--Jacket.
