Take a Dip into Mexican Cooking with the Acclaimed Cookbook Author


Winner of a 2023 James Beard Award for Best International Cookbook and author of New York Times bestseller Mi Cocina, Rick Martinez is back with Salsa Daddy, a love letter to the brightest dish in any Mexican meal. Whether it’s smashed, chopped, or cooked, Rick makes the case that salsa is a delicious condiment to snack on with chips, but it can also be the basis for iconic Mexican dishes.


Just in time for Cinco de Mayo, join Rick and James Beard Award–winning cookbook author and NYT Cooking contributor Sohla El-Waylly for a conversation that delves into this staple dish and teaches us that after 500 years of salsa history, there’s still so much to discover. Come dip and sip with Rick because salsa is not just a condiment—it's a lifestyle.


Beverages and light bites from the book will be served.


Copies of Salsa Daddy: Dip Your Way into Mexican Cooking by Rick Martinez are available for purchase with tickets or at the event from our friends at Kitchen Arts and Letters.
