Cookbooks

posted in Cooking, Technology |

One big problem that technology hasn’t solved at all. I’ve got tons of cookbooks. They fill an entire cupboard in my kitchen. Yet, when I want to find some good recipes for something specific, it can be a total mess. I want to cook a killer cassoulet. I love cassoulet, and its one of those dishes that can be a great test for a place that tries to make it. But of the 100s of cookbooks, where can I find great cassoulet?

I eventually found what looks like a good recipe in the Balthazar cookbook, but its still a mess. Often for recipes I wind up going with the Joy of Cooking or Larousse instead of something more interesting just because they have everything. I’d kill for something that makes it easier to find what I want…
