I have all of Julia's books, so I decided on The Silver Spoon (new edition), Dessert FourPlay, Craft of Cooking: Notes and Recipes from a Restaurant Kitchen (I'm a big fan of Tom Colicchio), and (based upon the strength of Dave's recommendation) Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill Cookbook. I seriously need another bookcase...

Thanks all!

Amy

I'm building another bookcase, plus another set of shelves for food this weekend! LOL

That is strange because I read the index of most of my books and didn't remember this. I re-searched its index and there was nothing under Beef and Barolo :!: :shock: Then I found it under Barolo /beef :!: :?: WTF


Nancy Silverton's cookbooks have notoriously bad indexes. This is especially true of Great Good Food ... which is also organized into whimsical chapters, so there's no real way to find a recipe in there except by paging through the cookbook. That is, until EYB. Not sure why, exactly; best guess is that she insisted on indexing them herself.
