Re: Favorite cookbooks?
How To Eat: The Pleasures and Principles of Good Food, by Nigella Lawson.
It's a wonderful read. Each recipe has a story and the stories are interesting and relatable. Despite her obvious upbringing, she's not a food-snob. The true test of a recipe book for me is do i --can i-- cook the food contained therein. I would estimate i've cooked a full third of the food in the book, and intend to try more yet. It's accessible and not intimidating.
I resurrected this thread because i'm sure there's some new books on your shelves. Just a curious wannabe foodie.
