Book Reviews of Chipotle (Pepper Pantry)

Book Review: A must-have for the chilihead!
Summary: 4 Stars

I have always enjoyed hot and spicy food but since living in San Antonio I have become more exposed to a vast variety of peppers both fresh and dried. My favorite has to be the Chipotle made from Tipico variety of jalapenos. I buy them dried and rehydrate them. I decided to find a cookbook dedicated to this delicious pepper and ordered this one.

First let me say that this is a small book, about 6"x5" and cut into an odd shape (resembling a pepper I guess). There are no photographs inside of the book which is a shame as photos often inspire me to make a particular dish.

The first 27 pages of this little 90 page book are dedicated to giving the reader the definition, history and varieties of Chipotle peppers. The recipes follow and are divided into these sections:

* Sauces, salsas, condiments and a drink
* Appetizers and Breakfast
* Soup and salads
* Main courses

My favorites so far have been the Smokey Mayonnaise (I substituted freshly made mayonnaise for the prepared variety used in the recipe), Smokey Chipotle Pesto, Chipotle Chilaquiles (which I think is also called Migas) and the Tournedos Chipolte.

The book ends with a section that list resources for some of the ingredients used in the cookbook. Although I am happy with my purchase I would have liked it better if it was bigger, was shaped like a regular book so it fits into my bookcase better, had more recipes and included photos so I am giving it 4 stars.
