Introduction:
Although, not originally from Santa Fe, I have lived here long enough to have assimilate completely into the culture of this mystical magical city. Santa Fe is truly unique. The community is eclectic and cosmopolitan, yet retains a small town feeling. Everybody knows everybody or knows somebody who does. It's a sleepy town where almost everything closes around 9:00 pm. Because of this a culture of private get-togethers and dinners at friend's homes is the main source of social interaction.
Cooking is really important. And if you don't cook, you need to know the best caterers or private chefs. For most of us, cooking for our friends is the only way to go. It kind of establishes who you are y the quality, variety and excellence of the food. SO, needless to say, cooking is something to strive for. I am a natural born cook and after almost 30 years in Santa Fe believe I have created and compiles some of the best recipes.
Another oddity of Santa Fe cuisine is that the meals don't consist of one or two things. They are basically a large assortment of "Tapas" or appetizers. Variety is a premium.
The recipes in this cook book, although based on the following, aren't Mexican, Hispanic, Spanish or American Indian. They belong in their own category which is truly Santa Fe.
I hope you find the recipes easy to follow and enjoy them as much as my family and friends do.
