Book Trailer: Latin American Street Food

Latin American Street Food: The Best Flavors of Markets, Beaches, and Roadside Stands from Mexico to Argentina, by Sandra A. GutierrezPublication day is here! Time to celebrate the brand new cookbook by Sandra A. Gutierrez, Latin American Street Food: The Best Flavors of Markets, Beaches, and Roadside Stands from Mexico to Argentina.

From tamales to tacos, food on a stick to ceviches, and empanadas to desserts, Latin American Street Food takes you on a tasting tour of the most popular and delicious culinary finds of twenty Latin American countries, including Mexico, Cuba, Peru, and Brazil, translating them into 150 easy recipes for the home kitchen. These exciting, delectable, and accessible foods are sure to satisfy everyone.

We had a great (delicious) time making this video. In it, Sandra makes the famous “Goat” Sandwich (Chivito Uruguayo) and tells how the flavorful towering sandwich (which actually contains no goat!) got its name.

 
Sandra Gutierrez is also author of The New Southern-Latino Table: Recipes That Bring Together the Bold and Beloved Flavors of Latin America and the American South. Visit her website, SandrasKitchenStudio.com, or follow her on Twitter @SandraLatinista.
