I bought his volume 1 dvd video, the first four episodes of Mexico, One Plate At a Time. Not only were the ingredients not included, the cooking scenes were totally butchered, cut out completely in some cases. Here we have fully intact segments of Rick the Dick droning on and on at length about Aztec architecture and temples and Catholic churches and the invention of stucco and the chemical break down of masonary lime yada yada...., but when it comes right down to showing how to cook/soak the nixtamal, a great Mexican secret claimed to be revealed on this dvd, we cut to his home kitchen where he recommends canned hominy.
I've seen the mole episode twice on tv and wanted my own complete version. No chance. Where he once went on in detail about how to seed and fry the dried chiles making sure not to burn them and cause bitterness, and how to fry the whole almonds and raisins to just the right plumpness, now all three get a 3 sequence shot lasting a total of about 5 seconds with no information at all. "Fry the chiles, almonds, and raisins". Next!.... But, he doesn't mind babbling on about his daughter's birthday party and a buncha other pointless crap. His dvd videos are a complete rip-off for which you need his book more than ever. Friggin' crook.
