Baja Flavors on the Bicentennial of Mexican Independence

    It’s the bicentennial of Mexican Independence and you may not know how to serve up Mexican food with Baja flavor, but Ann Hazard sure does. Join her on September 16th, the day that marks 200 years of Independence from Spanish rule and 100 years since the Revolution of 1910 that toppled dictator Porfirio Diaz. Ann will be at the Upstart Crow Bookstore and Coffeehouse at 7 pm sharing Cooking with Baja Magic Dos as part of the “Third Thursday” author series.

    Cooking with Baja Magic Dos expands on the 175 recipes from the original book, resulting in 250 mouthwatering recipes that will transport your taste buds to the beautiful shores of Baja California. Learn to make tamales, chile rellenos, and guacamole, plus elaborate sauces, cocktails, and desserts. The text includes colorful all-new artwork by Gayle Hazard and Terry Hauswirth, plus lively stories about Ann and Terry’s adventures.

    Ann Hazard, long-time travel and cookbook writer and author, is passionate about all things Mexican. A third generation Baja aficionada, Ann followed her father and grandfather’s footsteps up and down the world’s longest peninsula since she was nine. Ann is the author of Cooking With Baja Magic, Cooking With Baja Magic Dos, Cartwheels in the Sand, and Agave Sunsets.

    Don’t miss this chance to hear Ann share her stories from Baja and her tips on cooking, not to mention the chance to sample a few tasty tidbits.

    Thursday, September 16th, 7 pm at the Upstart Crow Bookstore & Coffeehouse, 835C West Harbor Drive, Seaport Village, San Diego.
