A memoir sculpted around cooking, Rodriguez grew up in Taos, New Mexico as a coyota (mixed Spanish/Anglo descent), daughter of a druggist and a painter/cartoonist. Rodriguez became a famous enjarradora (the inspiration for Ruby Archuleta) and then my favorite painter. Rodriguez vividly paints her relatives and acquaintances both in the memoir and the dream that became the book cover. There's pain and love, and all are welcomed at the table. Coyota in the kitchen also features 44 recipes, mostly New Mexican, some Texan, some Mexican. My only my complaint was that the chapter "... or, Kalisa's Family-Style Restaurant" did not identify Kalisa as Kalisa Moore, the Queen of Cannery Row, and the Family-Style Restaurant as "La Ida Cafe."

This book of stories and recipes introduces two eccentric families that would never have eaten together, let alone exchanged recipes, but for the improbable marriage of the author's parents: a nuevomexicano from Taos and a painter who came from Texas to New Mexico to study art. Recalling the good and the terrible cooks in her family, Anita Rodríguez also shares the complications of navigating a safe path among contradictory cultural perspectives. She takes us from the mountain villages of New Mexico in the 1940s to sipping mint juleps on the porch of a mansion in the South, and also on a prolonged pilgrimage to Mexico and back again to New Mexico. Accompanied by Rodríguez's vibrant paintings--including scenes of people eating on fiesta nights and plastering an adobe church--Coyota in the Kitchen shows how food reflects the complicated family histories that shape our lives.
