Hi, I’m looking for some cookbook recommendations. AI and SEO slop have kinda killed my trust for most things on the internet, and I figure it might be handy to have some physical books in case it gets even worse. Also would be nice to have at least one book for low-carb recipes (my roommate is diabetic) and a book for vegetarian recipes. If any of you have cookbooks you love, I’d appreciate your recommendations!

Edit:

Thank you all, I ended up ordering:

Food Lab
Joy of Cooking
Complete Mediterranean Cookbook
Better Homes & Gardens New Cookbook

If I could have ordered one more, it probably would have been Night + Market. :)

My recommendation is J. Kenji Lopez-Alts “Food Lab”. It’s amazing for all skill levels, delicious recipes and explains why you should and how to do advanced cooking methods easily. It single handily took my cooking to the next level.
