I love cooking! Though I've never taken a cooking class in my life, I've struggled to keep up with world-class chefs on tv. And I've wished for a resource that brings together how to stock and lay-out a kitchen, how to prepare excellent meals, and throw great dinner parties.
And then there is The Kitchn Cookbook: Recipies, Kitchens & Tips to Inspire Your Cooking.
It's written by Sara Kate Gillingham and Faith Durand, food writers who run The Kitchn, a website all about cooking.
The first part is all about the basics of the kitchen. From set up to layout. For all kitchen sizes. There are plenty of stunning photos that spark the reader's imagination and open up kitchen creativity.
And I loved the second section -- "How to Cook Well" -- that includes not only the recipies (oh the mouth-watering recipies!) but also sage wisdom about stocking a kitchen and some cooking basics.
The third section, on "Gathering" of all varieties, is a valuable addition.
This cookbook would be a great gift for a graduating college student of a newly-married couple. But it's really meant for food lovers of all varieties.
If you buy only one cookbook for your kitchen, make it this one.
I received this book free, from the Blogging for Books program, in exchange for my honest review.
