Recommended Reading

Cooks love books, and I gotta say, I’m no exception. Here’s a list of a few of my favorites. These are books that I consider to be ‘must-owns’ for anyone who wants to cook better:

  • The Art of Simple Food by Alice Waters
  • The Food Lab by J. Kenji López-Alt
  • Ad Hoc at Home by Thomas Keller
  • Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking by Marcella Hazan
  • Tapas – A Taste of Spain in America by José Andrés
  • Amuse-Bouche by Rick Tramonto
  • Prune by Gabrielle Hamilton

I’ll keep this list updated, and maybe break it into sections, but for now, these are my favorites for all purpose knowledge and dinners at home. What are some of yours? Let me know! Maybe I’ll find a new book I absolutely need to have!
