Powell's Presents: Alfredo Garcia

The key to cooking like Freddsters is adding a squeeze of lime and a whole lot of heart. So, grab an apron and let's make it! Alfredo Garcia (better known as social media sensation Freddsters) is a first-generation Mexican American, born in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas and raised in Chicago. His vivacious and lovable personality comes across in his viral content, where he explores the ways in which his American upbringing and his Mexican heritage blend in the kitchen. Let's Make It (DK Publishing) reflects these dual influences on his cooking, with Mexican-inspired versions of American classics and modern twists on traditional dishes. You'll learn how to master authentic Mexican staples, like homemade tortillas and perfectly cooked frijoles, and use those foundations to create over 100 fusion masterpieces. Think Jalapeno Popper Tacos, Chori-queso Baked Spaghetti, and Poblano Caesar Salad. Whether you're looking for a fresh twist on tres leches cake (try a bit of matcha powder!) or the most delectable pico de gallo to bring to the carne asada, Let's Make It has got you covered.
