Asada Delivers Summer Buzz

Asada: The Art of Mexican-Style Grilling (Abrams), the new book from Oaxaca authors Bricia Lopez and Javier Cabral, has grabbed the spotlight as one of the most exciting cookbooks heading into summer. Covering the delectable and vibrant tradition of Mexican backyard grilling, the book was featured on “The Today Show” (with a live cooking demo on Rockefeller Plaza) and made a splash as the cover story for Food & Wine magazine’s June issue. Named one of Bon Appétit’s best cookbooks of the spring, Asada has also been covered by the BBC and the San Jose Mercury News, while Lopez and Cabral have been interviewed on “The Dave Chang Show” and NPR affiliate KCRW.
