Cook the Perfect . . .

First to recommend

Description

It's a little arrogant, isn't it? To say that you can cook the "perfect" anything with this cookbook? I'm okay with it, though, because the one recipe I did try, Roasted Tomato Soup, was delicious. I only wish I had the time to try the French Onion before giving the book away. (via Cookbook-a-Day Giveaway)

The Complete Baking Cookbook: 350 Recipes from Cookies and Cakes to Muffins and Pies

First to recommend

Description

A good resource for a wide range of nothing-too-fancy baked goods from Candied Ginger Cookies to Coffee Rum Brownies to Chocolate Pecan Bourbon Pie.

I tried the Lemon Souffle Cheesecake (p 171), mostly because the baker/author said it was inspired by a lemon cheesecake he had at Ciudad in Los Angeles. It was perfect for Spring! (via Cookbook-a-Day Giveaway)

The Warmest Room in the House: How the Kitchen Became the Heart of the Twentieth-Century American Home

First to recommend

Description

Instead of a book about food, of which there are now so many, this one is about the place where we make and enjoy it - the kitchen. There's a reason why, when you have a dinner party, no one sits at the table, and everyone ends up standing around the kitchen.

The Food Snob's Dictionary: An Essential Lexicon of Gastronomical Knowledge

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

If you're a true FOODIE, then ostensibly you already know all the words in this dictionary, but it's still a fun read anyway. And if you're an anti-foodie, then this is definitely a good book. To make fun of those snobs and their grass-fed homestead truffle-infused mire poix sous vide.
