Scribner

Cook up some classics!
Originally a self-published book in 1931, and no less than nine revisions later, this thick volume of recipes (it's got to be at least 3 inches thick) is a great addition to anyone's cook book library. But wait! This book is not merely just a collection of recipes- ...
The Quilter's Kitchen: An Elm Creek Quilts Novel with Recipes (Elm Creek Quilts Novel)
Jennifer Chiaverini
Simon & Schuster
, 2008
Enjoyed it, with low expectations
I liked it, but I read these reviews in advance so I knew what to expect. Anna has become one of my favorite characters, so it was fun to get a little more insight into her background and passions (plus some tantalizing speculation about Jeremy???) It was a nice ...

America?s Test Kitchen
, 2004
Perfect Creations Everytime......Almost Foolproof!!
First I will start by saying that I have never followed Cooks Illustrated or understood the belabored recipe-testing involved for this book. I have passed it up many times because the recipes looked too basic, and not gourmet or innovative. Boy, was I wrong! I was ...

Kitchen Confidential Updated Ed: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly (P.S.)
Anthony Bourdain
Harper Perennial
, 2007
No Reservations... this book is GREAT!
In reading this book, I could actually hear Anthony Bourdain's voice in my head. Since this was written prior to "A Cook's Tour" and "No Reservations" I felt as though I was getting the uncensored, ungroomed Tony Bourdain. My ex-husband told me that I shouldn't read ...

Giada's Kitchen: New Italian Favorites
Giada De Laurentiis
Clarkson Potter
, 2008
An unexpected twist
I own several other of Giada's books, and by far I believe this will be my favorite. With her other books I found myself making recipes only once a month or so because the majority seemed to heavy to eat in Florida weather. This new book contains a variety of fresh ...

Bill Buford

Apprentice of apprentices
Anyone who has ever worked at a continental-style restaurant should read this book. I picked up "Heat" in the interests of reliving my experiences in two continental restaurants, run by two totally different-in-temperament chefs, one Austrian, one Swiss. Neither one ...

Jan Karon

One of My Favorite Cookbooks
As a dedicated reader of Jan Karon's books, I had to buy Jan Karon's Mitford Cookbook and Kitchen Reader: Recipes from Mitford Cooks, Favorite Tales from Mitford Books (Mitford) as soon as it was available. During a lonely time in my life, I listened to the audio ...

The Best 30-Minute Recipe
Cook's Illustrated Magazine
America's Test Kitchen
, 2006
Excellent for a non-serious chef
This book has a remarkable number of really good recipes and a few duds. The collection is varied and covers traditional American to Thai. The biggest downside is that they don't suggest side dishes for their main courses. However, the real value is that they explain ...
