People always ask what my favorite cookbooks are, so here are some of them!  It’s definitely not a complete list, but a quirky assortment of classics and personal favorites, all written by cooks I admire.  Some may be out of print but happily you can find almost all of them for sale by online booksellers.  I hope you love some of these, too!
