Martín's Kitchen: A Bilingual Cookbook of Authentic Argentinian Family Recipes

Discover the heartwarming flavors of Argentina through the eyes of a home cook. Martín's Kitchen / La Cocina de Martín is a unique collection of authentic family recipes—dishes passed down through generations—compiled and written by fourteen-year-old Martín Arostegui Ferreyra as a Class 8 school project.

This isn't a book of professional haute cuisine, but a celebration of simple, soul-warming Argentinian food that can be made in any ordinary kitchen. Martín’s philosophy is clear: the best meals are about the people you share them with, and every recipe is built on accessible ingredients like good butter, fresh eggs, and a bit of patience.

Key Features of the Cookbook:
  • Completely Bilingual: Every recipe is presented first in English and then in Spanish (Español).
  • Dual Measurements: The English versions use Imperial measurements common in British kitchens (ounces, fluid ounces), while the Spanish versions use the original Metric quantities (grams, milliliters, Celsius).
  • Authentic Comfort Food: Learn the secrets behind Argentina’s most iconic dishes, including:
    • Savoury Staples: Chipá (gluten-free Cheese Bread), Hand-Cut Beef Empanadas, the hearty Locro National Harvest Stew, and Milanesa a la Napolitana (Neapolitan-Style Breaded Steak).
    • The Art of Asado: A comprehensive guide to the traditional Argentine Barbecue (Asado Argentino) ritual, featuring cuts like Vacío (Flank Steak) and Asado de Tira (Short Ribs), complete with recipes for Chimichurri and Salsa Criolla.
    • Pastry & Sweets: Mastering the base of Argentine baking with Bizcochuelo Clásico (Classic Sponge Cake), Pasta Frola (Lattice Tart), and the national treasure: Alfajores de Maicena (Cornflour Sandwich Cookies) filled with Dulce de Leche.
    • Iconic Desserts: Recipes for creamy Dulce de Leche Ice Cream and the classic Flan Mixto (Caramel Custard with Dulce de Leche and Cream).
From the buttery layers of Rosca de Queso to the ritual of the Sunday Asado, this book is Martín's personal journey to bottle the aromas and traditions of his homeland, wherever he goes. Roll up your sleeves, pull up a chair, and let's cook.
