[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get cookbooks from the library all the time.  I just love reading cookbooks. I find if I wind up renewing it or cooking more than one recipe more than once, then I go out and buy it anyway.

For the Zuni cookbook fan -- what recipes should I try?  This has been on my shelf for probably 15-20 years now and I've only used it for two things.  I would love to know your favorites. [/quote]

The roast chicken with bread salad, obviously.
The pasta with bacon and roasted tomatoes is easy and to die for.
I also love the French fish stew with potatoes and leeks.

I am actually quite good a cook and her recipes annoy me somewhat because they are soooo exacting and long-winded, but it is a fun cookbook to read! I just wish there was a slimmed down version of each recipe at the end of her lengthy explanation so I didn't have to re-read through it each time I make the recipe. It's the complete opposite of Alice Waters cookbooks, which basically say, "I trust you. Here is a list of ingredients. Make something with them."[/quote]
