Description
By Pedro Reyes
This is a snout-to-trotter salute to Mexico’s embrace of pigs and pork, thoughtfully composed and more than a little obsessed with all the ways the country likes its pork. With chapters on lard and other pork fats, chicharron, charcuterie, headcheese, tacos, tortas, and more, La República Democrática Del Cerdo is not primarily a recipe book, although there are about 20 recipes at the back. In Spanish.
