Breaking: ‘Texas Monthly’ Taco Editor José Ralat and other Texas food writers nominated for James Beard Awards
The Tacopedia outlines 21 different taco styles and where to eat each across the state. “At one point, a friend and I drove the entire Texas-Mexico border in five days, just for this package,” Ralat says. “It was exhausting, but it was educational.”— including columns on nixtamalization, chapulines and mole — “is
a way for me to give Texans and readers in general the vocabulary for what they already know. Most Texans are familiar with these elements. We eat them, we get excited by them, we get repulsed by them, but I hope that giving readers this history and giving them context, will encourage them to seek out the food for themselves, because there’s no better place to be eating Mexican food in America than in Texas right now.
Ralat says he’s stunned and grateful for the James Beard recognition, and that it would not have been possible to do this kind of work without the great support of his editors. “They deserve as much credit or more, because they have to deal with me,” he says with a laugh.
