From the James Beard Award–winning author of Mi Cocina comes a celebration of the dish that defines Mexican joy: salsa. Rick Martinez explores over seventy vibrant recipes and twenty-four easy meals that transform simple ingredients into stories of heat, texture, and tradition. From smoky Salsa Macha to the bright burst of Xnipec, each bowl offers a rhythm of spice and soul. Salsa Daddy reminds us that salsa isn’t just a dip—it’s the heartbeat of the table.

WHY WE PICKED IT
Because joy runs through every page like heat through a pepper. Martinez turns kitchen play into celebration—bright, bold, and unapologetically alive.
