Because translations don't exist, right? Holy fuck you're retarded...

This place has been getting bad of late

Diana Kennedy is one of the authorities for decades now, James Beard winner and considered like the Julia Child of Mexico, not even exaggerating. She has multiple cookbooks and is a teacher as much as author.
Most of her cookbooks will be divided by regional cuisine. Pick any of them up as they have a similar topic, and won't just be about amazing oaxacan cuisine.

I would imagine she would be #1 most sought after cooking school invited guest for any topic mexican.

This one is highly rated too, and the octogenarian author has a pedigree a mile long: Mexico: The Cookbook by Margarita Carrillo Arronte

At some point, you explore regional food that interests you and find the videos showing techniques of what you really want, hopefully inspired by travel.
Sadly, though they are fun, if you are really schooled you'll spot problems with cookbooks from Bayliss or Feniger or Aaron Sanchez, and other TV chefs if you're really hoping for the authentic. But, their popularity means you can buy them used on Amazon for pennies. They're in abundance.

>Mexico: The Cookbook

Thank you for an actual response. The pic in OP is from that book, will buy it soon.

Will buy her book too, thank you.

If your tacos have anything but meat, cilantro, onions and radish in them they are not authentic
Tamales should have seasoned slow cooked shredded meat spiced up with cumin lime and salt
Tortas are self explanatory
Rice and beans go with everything

Videos are much more fun. Some are in spanish tho she's very easy to understand with well articulated expat spanish, not even fast.

Don't be so stupid. Jews have lived in Mexico since Colonial times, as did "white" europeans, and don't forget (or maybe you never knew) they were once ruled by Maximilian of the Hapsburg Dynasty of the Austro-Hungarian empire fame. I can tell you've never been to the DF or have a clue. Tacos al pastor is actually a lebanese and syrian jew origin, from 1930s immigration. If you saw either cookbook author give any talk in Mexico, you'd see every great chef in the city there grinning like fools of worship, with some from abroad. They're gods of mexican historical cuisine, true scholars.
