Synopsis:

A completely updated and expanded edition of the classic, self-published, southwestern cookbook which has sold more than 32,000 copies. The Pink Adobe restaurant has operated for nearly 45 years and is considered one of the best restaurants in the United States.

Reviews: This delightful collection aptly demonstrates that restaurant cookery can also be a highly personal cuisine. Murphy, who opened the Pink Adobe restaurant in Santa Fe, N.M., 45 years ago, blends Creole, Hispanic and standard American fare with a dollop of whimsy. Mexican-style offerings include chile rellenos, black-bean soup, turkey mole poblano and sopapillas. Mexican-American cookery yields avocado halves, stuffed with chicken, in chili sauce, potato salad with green chilis, bread pudding with tequila sauce and a meat loaf sporting mandarin-orange segments, pine nuts and chopped jalapeno pepper. Murphy's New Orleans origins surface in such dishes as oysters St. Jacques, carnival okra, shrimp remoulade with Creole mustard and Cajun-style stuffed crabs. Personal tastes and a dash of exuberance produce lasagna monte, a chicken-and-cheese dish flavored with green chilis, sour cream and black olives; steak sauced with herbs, jalapenos and chilis; and flaming ice-cream sundae. This is an updated and expanded version of the self-published Cooking with a Silver Spoon, first issued in 1956.pk
