If you could choose only one of your cookbooks to take with you, which one would it be? I would love to hear which one you would choose. I had that dilemma when I sold my house and packed everything into storage. My car already looked like the Clampett’s so one cookbook was all I had room for.
I chose The Joy of Cooking. It isn’t necessarily my favourite, but it might satisfy my need for any recipe I might need for the next six months. In all honesty, www.epicurious.com is my favourite source of recipes. But I find myself now without internet unless I am having orange herbal tea at Starbucks.
Did anyone choose Julia Child? She is such a hot topic these days. The Silver Palate cookbooks are actually my favourite and I regret now that I didn’t bring The New Basics cookbook by the Silver Palate gals. I think it would have been a better choice than Joy.
What would you choose?
Now that I have decided to prepare the dinners for Wednesday night youth group, I am glad I brough JOY. I don't think I would find Sloppy Joes in just any cookbook! Everything happens for a reason ;)
ReplyDeleteSilver Palate cookbooks...hm-m-m. Do I need to add those to my collection?
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine being forced to pick one book. Maybe my old Better Homes and Gardens? But how boring would that be?
I know. I even thought Joy would be boring but I am using it and enJOYing it! I bought Dorie's, of course. But I am relying heavily on epicurious.com I love my Silver Palate's.
