First paragraphs:

By Pati Jinich April 18

When she was a teenager in the 1940s, Guadalupe Rivera Marin went to live with her father and stepmother in Coyoacán, in Mexico City, in a house that would become known for its vivid blue color, for its famous occupants and for the parties they would throw.

Her father, of course, was the muralist Diego Rivera, one of the most important Mexican artists of all time, and his wife was painter Frida Kahlo, who achieved worldwide fame mostly after her premature death at age 47. As Marin points out, Kahlo may have orchestrated the meals and gatherings with artistic brilliance, but she didn't cook much (nor did she like cooking)...

I've wanted to make green rice for quite a while and planned to do it
last week (when I made burrito bowls), but was distracted by a 1 year
old and forgot - so I ended up making Mexican style "white" rice
instead. Scroll down to the recipes for green, red and white rice on
page 56.

It's interesting to see green rice made with cilantro. I've always
known it as parsley and green onion -- an early spring dish.
