So, I was listing off a bunch of cookbooks we have to my sister over the phone, and of all those in the list, she said these were particularly good ones:
• How to Bake: The Complete Guide to Perfect Cakes, Cookies, Pies, Tarts, Breads, Pizzas, Muffins, Sweet and Savory, by Nick Malgieri
• The New York Times Bread & Soup Cookbook, by Yvonne Young Tarr (ISBN: 0-517-327600)
• Laurel's Kitchen: A Handbook for Vegetarian Cookery & Nutrition
I don't know if she liked that particular New York Times cookbook, but she seemed impressed with New York Times recipes in general.
Anyway, we have a bunch of cookbooks, but I've only used one of them very much (The Doubleday Cookbook; that's the only one I recommend from experience, so far, as I've usually just experimented and made stuff up, or used an Internet recipe; too bad it's out of print, if you want a new one). I think it's good to get recommendations. I do have others I have and that I've been recommended that I intend to try. (I need to get in the habit of trying recipes from new cookbooks. I like cookbooks with simple, easy recipes that work with what I have on hand. I would also love a cookbook that evaluated its own recipes fairly/honestly.)
There are a few cookbooks I'd like to get (but don't have), including the Fannie Farmer cookbook. I don't recall the other one offhand, but I'm sure I'd recognize it if I heard the name. It's an older one.
What cookbooks do you recommend?
