Celebrate Black History Month with recipes for turkey tostadas and vegan gumbo, plus a nostalgic homemade take on Taco Bell's Crunchwrap Supreme.
Southern California's love affair with the taco is hardly a secret. Here in Los Angeles, we're privy to innumerable regional takes, all reflecting waves of historical and recent immigration to California from Mexico’s distinct regions, and the culinary practices that migrate as well. The tacos I grew up eating at home resemble the tacos dorados that San Bernardino's family-owned Mitla Cafe introduced to the region in 1937.
The food historian and first Black food editor of a major newspaper extols the benefits of turkey as a low-fat alternative to pork and beef, including a turkey tostada and Caribbean turkey salad. And if you're in the mood for a warming soup, try making the vegetarian gombo that chef Keith Corbin serves at his California soul restaurant Alta Adams.
