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. :)

    I am a RecipeTinEats advocate. The recipes that I have tried have never turned out wrong - even my kitchen-anxious partner can follow her recipes just fine. Her books go for $20 at Target/KMart/Big W.

    I also have a book called Africola, after a restaurant in Adelaide, South Australia.

    I also like The Mediterranean Dish. I don’t think it’s AI, but I could be wrong. I hope not.
