With “Tacos From Dusk Till Dawn”, Danny Trejo, probably Hollywood’s most charismatic villain, not only delivers a cookbook, but also a very personal insight into his life. This book is a journey through the flavors of Mexico, the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles and the eventful life story of a man who went from prison inmate to celebrated actor and successful restaurateur.
The book is more than just a collection of recipes – it tells the story of Trejo’s rise and his roots. In short anecdotes and longer stories, he describes the highs and lows of his life, from his childhood in poor circumstances to the establishment of his restaurant chain “Trejo’s Tacos”. It becomes clear that Trejo’s love of Mexican cuisine is not just a backdrop, but is deeply rooted in his story.
With 75 recipes, the book offers a colorful variety of dishes: from classic tacos and quesadillas to aromatic dips and salsas to sweet temptations such as donuts and churros. The vegan variations, such as the cauliflower tacos, are particularly praiseworthy, proving that Mexican cuisine can also be interpreted in a light and modern way. The recipes are down-to-earth, uncomplicated and use ingredients that are easy to source – ideal for both amateur cooks and professionals looking for new inspiration.
Trejo manages to capture the vibrancy and diversity of Los Angeles. Between the recipes are stories about his family, encounters with friends and the Latino culture that has shaped him. The casual, humorous tone of the book makes it a real pleasure to browse through. At the same time, you can sense the respect Trejo has for Mexican cuisine – and that makes every recipe authentic and approachable.
