Even though Winnie the Pooh might say so. One of our colleagues is also a Chef - a real chef, not just a cook. Another of our colleagues has the best selection of cookbooks in Las Vegas, but we're running hard after her, and gaining. When we put our snob suits on, we refer to cooking books as "Books on Gastronomy."
I'm a plain, home cook, and very much enjoy reading, as do all other cookbook collectors, cookbooks. There are two wonderful magazine hardbound annual editions that are just the thing for those of us who don't like their food to look like somebody put their fingers all over the minute portions of whatever current weird veggie disguised under an Italian version of its name, or some strange fish name that most of us know as tuna fish. We recommend:
The Taste of Home annuals, and
The Cook's Illustrated annuals
if you cook like me. If not, we still recommend them. Buon Appetito !
