Biographical Sketch Book:
During eight years of a door-to-door treasure hunt, the author collected ancient recipes handed down orally from generation to generation. With a voice recorder and a camera, she created Gastronomy Sapphires, a compilation of 209 traditional and authentic recipes of South Californian cuisine. Beatriz has written simply and each recipe will encourage you to test your skills in the kitchen. This is not just another cookbook, but a real jewel of regional cuisines. “In the desert, nothing is wasted.”
