Name your favorite cook books please

Hmmmm....I generally just go to Food Network.com and browse. But I like Rachel Rey's books...bc she makes fun yummy things pretty easily.

Also Barefoot Contessa has a nice new book out that has classic meals, simply made

Geez, I've got about two hundred cook books I've collected over the years.

The ones I go to most often :
Julia Child's "The Way to Cook"
"NY Times Cookbook"
Marcella Hazan's "Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking"
anything by Jaques Pepin

I have a Newlywed cookbook..cant think of the full name but its huge and really helpful. I also really like Giada's books. And the crockpot cookbook is awesome!

The only cookbook i have is the one my MIL gave me at my shower "Croatian Cooking for Beginners ", so her son doesnt "starve".
I have yet to unpack the box that its in :)

I have a rachel ray 360 days of recipes that I like, the WW 5 ingredient one is my absolute favorite and I also use the Food Network one a lot- it has recipes from all their best chefs- bought it at kohls

I like the America's Test Kitchen Cookbook...but I usually just go online to recipezaar.com

MIL got me The Busy Mom's Slow Cooker Cookbook (even though I'm not a mom lol) but it's great because DH and I have crazy work schedules so it's perfect. Lots of great recipes in it that are very healthy. It also lists the nutritional info too.
I also have the WW cookbook. I haven't used it much, but it has a lot of great recipes.

And of course my fave, Bartending for Dummies!

I have the Rival Crock Pot recepies book that I bought and love. Also a Home & Garden pink ribbion cook cook.
I also get most of my recepies on here or LIW.. or Foodnetwork.com

Im not a cook so Im not a good cook by any means and I wanted to know the same thing a couple weeks ago. I started this thread on the Food & recipe's board. Hope it helps

I have many but I use the internet often.

FoodTV.com (food network)
cooks.com

I gravitate towards the Good Houskeeping ones.

Great Baking- it has EVERY type of desert from apple pie to puff pastry and croissants. I LOVE this one and use it so much that the pages are coming unbound.

Desserts- sme of the same stuff plus some fancier stuff

The Good Housekeeping Cookbook- it's the big yellow one w/ a bunch of food and some deserts..pancakes..waffles, etc.

The Cake Bible- I have yet to make something from this book, but I liked the name so I bought it haha
