Taco USA: How Mexican Food Conquered America

This time on America’s Test Kitchen, we speak with Gustavo Arellano, author of Taco USA: How Mexican Food Conquered America, about the most powerful immigrant cuisine in America and find out why he defends Taco Bell. We’ll find out what’s hot and what’s not in the world of kitchen gadgets, and we’ll travel back in time to discover the origins of chicken nuggets. We’ll be tasting cocoa powder, then we’ll head into the test kitchen to learn how to make great butternut squash soup. And of course, we’ll be taking your calls to answer all of your cooking questions.
