A Desert Feast:
Celebrating Tucson’s Culinary Heritage
by Carolyn Niethammer
Drawing on thousands of years of food-ways, Tucson cuisine blends the influences of Indigenous, Mexican, mission-era Mediterranean, and ranch-style cowboy food traditions. This book offers a food pilgrimage, where stories and recipes demonstrate why the desert city of Tucson became American’s first UNESCO City of Gastronomy.
