A collection of prize recipes from the newspaper, the first cook book was published in 1902, there were further collections published in 1911 and 1917. This contains one of the first real collections of Spanish recipes, though many were filtered through the local Protestant culture (e.g. Chili Stew submitted by Florence Osborne) but a number from Mrs. C.Y. Yglesias of Los Angeles (Enchiladas de Chile Verde; Sopa de Albondigas; Chile con Carne; Alligator Pear Salad) seem authentic, delicious and utilize local ingredients like chiles, cilantro and avocado.
