Anyone else love reading cookbooks?

[Beth Tagg]

Is it strange that I often find myself curled up on my couch reading one of my cookbooks? I love to browse until I fins something particularly tantilizing, and then scour it for interesting ingredients and different methods to coax flavors to their fullest potentials. I particularly love the cookbooks that feel more like a chef is tutoring me. They often have little hints an tips that enhance the recipe. What are some of your favorite cookbooks?

[Ika Apo]

I don't really read them often, but I love scrolling through recipes and saving some of the good ones for the future.

[Shiru Elizabeth]

Absolutely, I thoroughly enjoy reading cookbooks as they provide not only recipes but also a journey into different culinary cultures and techniques.

[Sandra Smith 18]

I, too, love flipping through the pages and reading cookbooks. I especially love the ones with great culinary photography which makes the recipes even more tantalizing.

[Jen Cowhig]

I love flipping through cookbooks and finding ones that are place-specific to places I’ve traveled to bring a bit of them home with me. What are some of your favorite cookbooks? I usually use websites now but I find flipping through physical cookbooks to be comforting

When Im actually going to cook, I typically go for my moms old Joy of Cooking cookbook. Recipe cards and cookbooks are things that have been getting past down through families and my mom.gathered quite a collection herself. While I haven't used it, I enjoy looking at our Ben and Jerrys cookbook. But I prefer finding place specific ones like we have one from a NH church which gathered patrons' recipes and I love having the Amish cookbook as its in a binder and tells cultural things. That's one my mom bought as my dad has family who grew up around the community. I make bread and soup using recipes from that Amish cookbook frequently

[Charmaine Mahlangu]

Not strange at all . I love going through my cook books even though the side effects are salivating and getting hungry shortly afterwards. I buy cook books as much as I collect my crime and thriller books. Surprisingly I also make time to teach myself how to make the recipes.

Oh my God. Me too. Especially when it has lots of pictures in it.

Do you ever use any of the recipes you save?

[Jacy Covers]

Yes, I actually love reading cookbooks. They are easy to understand and they help me whenever I am confused.

[Varisha Khanna]

I enjoy cook books, though I am not the best at following recipe's perfectly I like getting ideas of different food combinations that might work well together!

[Bianca Bennett 2]

I love reading cookbooks! I love looking at all the different recipes I want to try. I tend to get dessert books because I enjoy baking.

[Rasheed shaik]

"I can’t help myself, I just have to read cookbooks! There is something exhilarating and healing about moving through pages, looking for new recipes to undertake and getting ideas for what dish to cook next. I appreciate cookbooks because they allow me to travel through the influence of their flavors and ingredients as well as provide narratives and context that make the recipes more real for the reader. I know I want something delicious and warm or rather something adventurous with foreign flavors, I know I can always find it in the pages of a cookbook. Is there anyone else out there who feels the same way?"

[Mindy Baker 1]

I do the same thing with cooking magazines. I like to look at them back to front then actually read them front to back! I'm glad there are more people that like ready cb. I thought I was definitely a rarity if not the one and only !!!

[Joanna Perry]

I love reading recipes wherever I find them. Cookbooks are like the motherlode for a recipe lover. I have old cookbooks from my mother that are my favorites. I also love to read magazines with recipes, especially at this time of year with all of the cookie recipes. They are fun.
