September Staff Picks: Cooking 101
Second Floor Reading Room
"Although I’m not a gourmet by any means, some of my fondest memories involve cooking. Taking a Thai cooking class with my best friend in Portland, making cinnamon rolls with my mom on Christmas morning, even doctoring packets of Top Ramen every night to make them feel like a meal after my move to New York. Cooking reminds me of specific times, certain places, special people. It also gives us a glimpse into other cultures and past generations, and the opportunity to learn about them through their cuisines.
Our selection of cookbooks in Cooking 101 range from contemporary to historical, Italian to Vietnamese, broad (How to Cook Everything) to specific (Paleo Power Lunch). There’s something for everyone. Take a look at the sample recipes from each book for an idea of what’s inside. Happy cooking!"
