Next Level Chef winner Pyet De Spain celebrates her Mexican and Native American heritage in this collection of mouthwatering recipes, a vibrant fusion that ties us to the land and to one another.

Star chef Pyet DeSpain rose to prominence as the first winner of Gordon Ramsey's Fox television show Next Level Chef. Now, in her debut cookbook, she shares the joy of cooking fueled by her burning passion for Native American and Mexican American cuisine. Rooted in Fire: A Celebration of Native American and Mexican Cooking is a tribute to her dual heritage--a gorgeously crafted celebration of the diversity of food and the stories, traditions, culture, and profound philosophies of Indigenous people that season each meal.

Pyet shows you how to incorporate a delicious range of key ingredients--from venison, dandelion greens, to sunchokes, bison, and native berries--into more than sixty fusion dishes. Family and friends will be excited to gather around the table to enjoy sweet and savory food such as:

In addition to her inventive and palate pleasing recipes, Pyet invites home cooks to honor the seasons on our beautiful Earth and connect with essential foodways. "This is more than just a cookbook," Pyet writes. "It's giving a voice to Indigenous people, while also highlighting the fusion of my two cultures with fire and purpose."
