Acclaimed Mexican chef Enrique Olvera presents the ultimate insider’s guide to preparing and enjoying authentic tacos

Enrique Olvera is known for the sophisticated Mexican cuisine he serves at his globally renowned restaurants, including the iconic Pujol, in Mexico City. However, his true passion is the everyday taco, which he regards as the most ‘democratic’ of foods. In Sunny Days, Taco Nights, Olvera presents an in-depth exploration of the taco’s history and many different styles, ingredients, and accompaniments, and much more.


• Features 100 recipes for home cooks, split evenly into classic street-style tacos and contemporary reinventions.
• Includes cultural history, regional styles, salsas, and essential tortilla guides.

Equal parts culinary history and cookbook, the book features 100 recipes designed for home cooks, arranged into two main chapters: Classics, which features street tacos; and Originals, which explores Olvera’s contemporary reinventions of well-known originals. Classic recipes include Fish Tacos from northwest Mexico; Chicharron Tacos from Monterrey; Chorizo Tacos with spinach; and Steak Tacos common at street vendor tricycles in Mexico City. Contemporary reinventions include Brussels Sprouts Tacos with spicy peanut butter; Ceviche Tacos; Pork Belly Tacos with smoked beans; and Eggs & Green Bean Tacos inspired by Olvera’s childhood breakfasts.

Visually stunning, with vivid food photography and a palette inspired by native corn in Mexico, Sunny Days, Taco Nights is the definitive book on one of the world’s most beloved foods.
