Hi, my name is Kate and I am a certified cookbook junkie! I have never met a cookbook I did not like.<\/p>\n

Although I rarely follow a cookbook for my actual cooking, I read them like novels. Need ideas of what to get me for my birthday or Christmas? A cookbook would be perfect! I use cookbooks for inspiration and new ideas. I use them to study what flavor combinations are repeated over and over again so that I know what to try in my kitchen. And now, I use them to examine the pictures \u2013 the angle, the lighting, the plating. (Hopefully some day I\u2019ll actually know what I\u2019m doing when photographing food. It\u2019s kind of important when you write a food blog.)<\/p>\n

Anyhow, here are 13 of my favorite cookbooks, the ones I go back to time and time again.<\/p>\n

  1. Rachel Ray 365: No Repeats<\/a>\"\"<\/li>\n
  2. The Taste of Home Cookbook<\/a>\"\"<\/li>\n
  3. Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home<\/a>\"\"<\/li>\n
  4. Emeril\u2019s TV Dinners<\/a>\"\"<\/li>\n
  5. The America\u2019s Test Kitchen Family Cookbook<\/a>\"\"<\/li>\n
  6. Joy of Cooking<\/a>\"\"<\/li>\n
