Top 9 General Cookbooks
In this first category, General Cookbooks, we include compilations, comprehensive instructive tomes, and books with wide-ranging
focus. These are the best nine books in no particular order.
1. Martha Stewart’s Cooking School: Lessons and Recipes for the Home Cook By Martha Stewart, Clarkson Potter, 2008. Hardcover. $45; 504 pages
Those irritated by her big media personality are likely to forget that Martha Stewart long ago made pin-perfect instruction
the heart of her industry. Few personalities in modern cookery insist that information be presented with this much patience
and precision. There’s no arrogance in these pages, only a genuine desire that readers learn proper technique en route to
becoming capable cooks. There are lots of visual cues to lead even novices confidently down the path to success.
