Product Description
Product Description
Like a blank canvas but much tastier, the ubiquitous corn or flour tortilla is the perfect vehicle for every sort of food. And taco-making-the art of filling tortillas with dozens of zesty and unexpected concoctions-turns the ordinary into the irrepressible.
Victoria Wise and Susanna Hoffman, both life-long tortilla aficionados, fill them with Fiesta Ground Beef, Chicken Mole, Spicy Shrimp Salad, Green Olive Cilantro Salsa Ancho Chili Sauce, Pear Lime Salsa, and much more.
Here are over 200 recipes for well-filled tortillas. Tacos from around the world-Portuguese-style Grilled Fish Taco, Oriental Stir-Fry Beef Taco, Thai-Style Shrimp Taco, add variety to the spice of such Cal-Mex favorites as Basic Beef Fajita Taco, Black Bean Taco, Chorizo Taco, Snapper Vera Cruz Taco, and Taco de Carnitas. Dessert tacos and tostada sundaes bring the most festive food into the most festive course.
Whether store-bought or home-pressed (the recipes are here, for corn and flour), a stack of tortillas means delicious, down-home, fun food for any occasion-to eat with your fingers in messy splendor. Selection of the Book-of-the-Month Club's The Good Cook Club. 250,000 copies in print.

helpful but very californian, 6 April 2000
By Susan Windley - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Well-filled Tortilla Cookbook (Paperback)
The best thing about this cookbook is the recipes for homemade Tortillas. There are multiple ways to fill them, too--but I have to say, unless your tastes are pretty "Californian" rather than Tex-Mex (or just Mex!), you will be puzzled and perhaps not pleased. I'm glad I bought the book, though; we use it once a month or so (more than many other cookbooks!).

Quick and easy meals that always taste great, 14 Dec 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Well-filled Tortilla Cookbook (Paperback)
This is a great little cookbook. The authors provide interesting tidbits on the origin of their recipes and offer numerous variations on the main recipes. We use this cookbook at least once a week and we have never had a bad meal. We appreciate that the meals are quick, easy, and can make you look like a gourmet

Great Mexican Cookbook!, 22 July 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Well-filled Tortilla Cookbook (Paperback)
This is a great cookbook for somebody who wants to learn how to make their own salsa! It's also great for putting together menus for entertaining guests. I have loved everything I've made from this cookbook and have bought it as a gift for friends. The well-filled ground beef is a staple in my family's menu now.
