In this appealing and informative guide to authentic Spanish cookery, Juan and Susan Serrano have culled over 250 of their favorite recipes from traditional family menus and regional specialties throughout Spain. A Spanish Family Cookbook covers each course of the Spanish meal, from tapas (appetizers) through postres y pastels (desserts, cakes, and pastries). 
Garnished with a generous sprinkling of personal anecdotes and cultural insights, the book includes old family recipes handed down over the years and practical adaptations of traditional cooking methods, as well as some of the authors' more recent creations. 
The recipes are seasoned with commentaries on origin and regional variations, piquant observations on traditions and local customs, and explanations of Spanish words and culinary proverbs. Also included is a concise wine appendix, with information on classic Spanish wines--Sherries, Riojas, and Cavas--and the various regions in which they are produced. The appendix also includes recommendations for pairing various wines with classic Spanish dishes. 
A Spanish Family Cookbook also features an extensive introduction and indices in both English and Spanish.

This book begins by exploring the background and history of proverbs in Spain through examples and analysis of modern slang and expressions. The second section discusses the importance of proverbs in Spanish literature and the oral tradition. The final discourse of this book explains the 'who, when, and where' of many well-known Spanish sayings. Spanish Proverbs, Idioms and Slang is a comprehensive and witty pool of information, written in a clear and concise voice.
