Comida Casera
More Than 100 Vegan Recipes, from Traditional to Modern Mexican Dishes
Discover delicious, plant-based Mexican recipes from a Culinary Institute of America-trained Mexican chef.
When Dora Ramírez gave up eating animal-based foods, she worried that it meant giving up her favorite Mexican dishes. But once she started reinventing her favorite recipes, she realized that plant-based ingredients actually enhance the dishes. In Comida Casera, Dora shares her fresh take on traditional cuisine in chapters devoted to everything from favorite home comfort foods to fine dining. From Indigenous recipes created in partnership with cocineras tradicionales to Mexico's markets and street vendors, Comida Casera is a delicious love letter to food and culture, celebrating the interconnectedness of both through a plant-based lens. With recipes for:
Almond Queso Fresco
Green Chilaquiles
Chilorio Burritos
Pumpkin Seed Enchiladas
Vanilla Flan, & more!
“My cookbook is a love letter to my country and my people. It is a book that honors traditional Mexican flavors and techniques, but relies on the immense world of plants to do so.”—Dora Ramírez

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
