T
he modern world, with its
pressures, hectic pace and
burgeoning cities, makes
many of us long for a sim-
pler life in touch with the earth's
natural wonders.
Maybe that explains our ever-
growing fascination with the
American Southwest.
Southwest cuisine today is the
sum of the myriad cultures which
have lived in the region, from pre-
historic tribes to today's native
Americans, from Spanish ex-
plorers to later Mexican settlers.
When I was in Arizona, I had
the opportunity to meet Barbara
Pool Fenzl, author of Southwest
the Beautiful Cookbook. The
Phoenix-based cooking teacher
has gathered recipes that corn-
bine innovative techniques and
dynamic food combinations with
historic methods to produce dish-
es as vibrant as the Southwest it-
self.
