You’re invited to watch and cook along with Chef and Food Writer Adán Medrano, author of “Truly Texas Mexican: A Native Culinary Heritage In Recipes.” Tap Into the Native American Roots of Texas Mexican Food with Chef Adán!

“Truly Texas Mexican” will air on Rocky Mountain PBS on Thursday, April 1, at 7 pm MT and Friday, April 2 at 9 am MT.

Medrano spent 23 years traveling and working throughout Latin America, Europe and Asia where he came to recognize the importance of food and culinary traditions in society. He returned to the US in 2010 to focus on the culinary traditions of the Mexican American community of Texas: its history, recipes, and how this singular cuisine is showing the way towards a better understanding of what it means to be “American.”
