Review

Dining with the Dead is a beautiful illumination of the soul of a culture―its depth, its connectivity to something bigger than themselves. Many of us don’t confront our mortality with celebration, gratitude. These pages are teachers, and I for one will not be late for class. —Chris Bianco, James Beard Award–winning chef and restaurateur



Beautiful, superb, and magical, Dining with the Dead transports us to another world through hundreds of colorful, pristine, and powerful images of altars and offerings from one of the most renowned celebrations and traditions in the world. The wonderful recipes, patiently collected throughout the years, show the pride with which women have passed, from one generation to the next, the secrets of a cuisine . . . that merges the pre-Hispanic and colonial origins of Mexico. Mariana Nuño Ruiz and Ian McEnroe’s book will make you part of this tradition, move you to tears, and urge you to cook for your dead, for your loved ones, and for yourself, and to rejoice in the grandiosity of this unique celebration. ―Adriana Pacheco, Hablemos Escritoras podcast



What a treat to read Dining With the Dead. This is the rare, beautiful book that is enjoyable, educational, and guaranteed to make you hungry. Secrets are revealed with respect and love throughout the book. Like a good trip to Mexico, Dining With the Dead celebrates life. ―Steve Sando, founder, Rancho Gordo



Dining with the Dead is more than a lavish, full-color illustrated cookbook of traditional Mexican recipes for celebrating the Day of the Dead. Dining with the Dead also draws the reader into Mexican cultural traditions for honoring loved ones who have passed on, including the origins of the holiday, altars and ofrendas (offerings), what it means to hold a night vigil at a cemetery in Mexico, and more. Connoisseurs of homemade Mexican cuisine will especially appreciate the step-by-step instructions for finding and preparing special ingredients. Dining with the Dead is an excellent resource for cooks seeking to broaden their cultural appreciation and understanding, and a treasure to simply page through. Highly recommended! — Midwest Book Review



The top of my list is one that I backed on Kickstarter, and it's finally on the way here. Titled Dining with the Dead, I received my advance copy this week, and was stunned. Authors Mariana Nuño Ruiz and Ian McEnroe have produced one of the finest Mexican cookbooks I've ever seen, with a focus on festival foods around Mexico's Day of the Dead. They also set their research in one of my favorite regions in all of Mexico, the crafts-making towns around Lake Pátzcuaro in Michoacán. With step-by-step instructions for making each dish (and component), I believe this book would be a prime addition to any cookbook library. —Celia Sack, Omnivore Books on Food, San Francisco
