My partner is wanting a cookbook. We moved in together a few months ago and have been eating in since and needing new ideas. He’s looking for something that has simple recipes with things you’ll actually have around the house maybe something with lots of different recipes. He hasn’t really liked the few cookbooks he’s glanced in so does anybody have any good recommendations?

I have always been a fan of history and cooking which brought me my love for Historical Cooking. This allowed me to discover Tasting History which became a pivot to finding out more historical cooking channels on Youtube such as Townsends as well as those who are not exclusively historical cooking channels such as How to Cook That and English Heritage. With that, I began finding cookbooks from my country the Philippines some of which would have not been possible if I were not a university student here.

Eventually, I saw this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Old_Recipes/comments/synx7f/i_collect_antique_cookbooks_and_cook_recipes_from/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Realizing the importance of sharing knowledge, I am going to allow access to my online collection of Filipino cookbooks and non-Filipino cookbooks from 'The Governor-General's Kitchen', all before 1976, almost half-a-century ago.

Here are the links:

Non-Filipino cookbooks: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1GzPbGa9QdeiBNDKyvv24nnhpf0hcwtMM?usp=drive_link

If you wish to add to the collection of pre-1976 Filipino cookbooks not mentioned, you may comment here or send me a DM. Credits to all original owners and holders of cookbooks. This is in the name of Filipino culinary heritage and not profit. More to come hopefully.

Looking for the Minnesota restaurant cookbook “The New Scenic Cookbook”. Looking for the first on as the second one is such a great find for me!

Anyone have any ideas? I have a eBay alert, check BAM daily and Thriftbooks…anyone know of possibly where libraries sell their books in one spot, or maybe you have one to sell??

Thanks!

Hi can someone tell me if there is a good cookbook for middle eastern oriental cuisine

I dont want anything thats meant to add THC to dishes, but more dishes to make when stoned. I think it would be a great gift idea for a friend of mine but I dont know of any such cookbooks.

I'm looking to get more into French cooking, looking for a good book to get me started. I'm far from a beginner in the kitchen and very familiar with advanced cooking techniques, open to any suggestions. Thanks!

Hi r/cookbooks !

My sister is a cookbook fanatic and I try to get a her a cool new cookbook for Christmas every year. I was hoping that I could get a few suggestions on the best ones to come out in 2024.(preferably cookbooks without baking).

I asked you folks last year and the sub gave some great recommendations (Veg-table by Nik Sharma and Tenderheart by Hetty McKinnon). She loved them! Thanks so much and I hope that your friends and family treat you to a wonderful cookbook this holiday season!

My grandpa and I recently went to an Uzbekistan restaurant and we loved the food. He loves cooking authentic dishes from countries and I think he’d love this as a gift. I’m wondering where I might be able to find a cookbook with traditional recipes! Any recommendations?

Is there a cookbook that’s a collection of 1-3 authentic recipes of 1-3 iconic dishes from a bunch of different countries? (Like 1-3 from Brazil, 1-3 from Italy, 1-3 from Marroco, etc.)

I live in the US and I’m trying to find cookbooks in Spanish, Italian, & French. However, I’m having a hard time finding books in languages other than English, even online. Does anyone have a recommendation on where I can source books?

Edit for clarification: I’m looking for books originally in another language and still in their original language. I am multilingual and am looking for these books as gifts for relatives who love to cook and are studying these languages.

I'm interested in getting into French cooking and thought I'd pick up a cookbook to start. Julia Child's book seems to be a good starting point. However, I'm wondering if it's worth getting into French cooking at all if I don't use alcohol in cooking? Can you make a beef bourguignon without red wing, for example? Thanks.

I've found a lot of bone broth books / broths and stocks / but the books all seem to be before 2020 in publication. It's not a deal-breaker, but I'm looking for something more current. I think I'm also being wary of a lot of Doctor published cookbooks about bone broths, but maybe I should include them as well?

Hey yall!I just finished reading "Simple Southern Style Cooking" by Gabby DiMarco on Kindle and I couldn't wait to share it. This book is a gem!!!

It covers everything from fluffy biscuits and creamy grits to the ultimate fried chicken and gumbo. Each chapter dives into classic recipes, cooking tips, and the rich traditions behind these dishes. Plus, the dessert section? Absolute heaven! 🍑🥧

Does anyone have a recommendation for a cookbook that reads like it's written by a loving grandmother passing along family recipes? Looking for something comforting with stories and history behind the recipes.

Post your top 3 (or more) community cookbooks; the ones with the recipes you go back to over and over

Please recommend a good cookbook with small recipes.

I like all cuisines, except Indian (too spicy for me). I have a fully equipped kitchen, except souse vide which I don’t care for.

Thanks!

I want to get my boyfriend a persian cookbook for his birthday. He knows how to make a lot of the staples, mostly through looking at the caspian chefs recipes, but I think a physical book would be nice. What are your favorite authentic persian cookbooks? He also is trying to learn farsi so one that incorporates farsi could be amazing! What else would be a nice addition to this gift?

their is an old cook book that I use to have I don't know what it was called but I remember it had recipes from gold rush cowboy and Dutch oven and its spiral bound and hade a picture of a wagon

Anybody know where i can get a copy of Maaemo in English?

I’m looking for recommendations for cookbooks that are more food stories, with good narrative like Nigel Slater’s Kitchen Diaries. More words than photos, but still recipes. Are there other authors out there with a similar style? Thanks!

Looking to up my side dish game!

I no longer have this book, but it’s around 2-3” wide book. I don’t remember the jacket cover but the book itself looked yellow. I remember the beginning part of the book showed you how to set tables, etiquette etc. I know this is a long shot, but I thought I would ask.

I'm looking for cookbooks about pretzels OR a cookbook with a pretzel recipe you endorse

The title is pretty much it. I've self-published a cookbook that's available on Amazon. Now I need ideas to promote it. I don't have a blog or much of a social media presence. I'm also new to posting on Reddit, so I hope I'm doing this right. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi

Does anyone have a copy of The New Oxo Cookbook

ISBN 9780859418737

I can't find mine and really want to cook a particular recipe from it.

Thanks Steve
