Tacos

Tacos is a celebration of the context, history and philosophy of the taco, written by Lily Ramirez-Foran, and published by Blasta Books. This small but mighty cookbook features authentic flavours of Mexico, from real corn tortillas to smoky chillies, matched with the best of Irish produce. We love that there is something for everybody here, whether you're a carnivore or vegan, you're sure to be inspired.
