I love flipping through a good cookbook.
I love the artful photographs, drool-inducing recipes, and engaging stories woven throughout.
Three new cookbooks that tick each of these boxes hit the Cole Library shelves this week, and the temptation to selfishly check them all out to myself is real. Everyday Grand: Soulful Recipes for Celebrating Life’s Big and Small Moments by Jocelyn Delk Adams looks like a party. It’s filled with brightly colored, southern-style recipes crafted to make cooking, and eating, a joyous endeavor. Rick Martinez’s Mi Cocina: Recipes and Rapture from My Kitchen in Mexico is a culinary pilgrimage through Mexico’s many regional cuisines. Filled with love for food and the people of who make it, Martinez’s recipes are both deeply authentic and still very accessible to the everyday cook. Accessibility is also a large part of The King Arthur Baking School: Lessons and Recipes for Every Baker from the famous King Arthur Flour company. Tried and true recipes abound in this cookbook, and each is designed to not only teach you to bake but also the “how” and the “why” behind the recipe’s success.
Expand your culinary repertoire, and check out one of these delightful new cookbooks today!
