Best book about cooking I've ever read.

Yes, I read the entire cookbook, cover to cover. It has already improved my cooking, and I look forward to doing the experiments, making and then riffing on the recipes and rereading for the joy of the illustrations.
As someone who rarely follows recipes and likes to make things up in the kitchen, I found this book full of incredibly helpful information - things I wish I had learned a long time ago! It's absolutely delightful, the illustrations are perfect, and Samin's sense of wonder & appreciation of food is palpable.

Surprisingly worked well as an audiobook. Doesn’t have the recipes incorporated throughout, but fun to listen to as I bake bread on a lazy weekend.
Torn between 3 and 4 stars for this one. The first part was not as accessible as I was hoping it would be. There's lot of science involved which can be daunting and overwhelming for some. She has a great voice throughout, but lost me at times. I will keep this book handy in the hopes that I will grow as a cook rather than relying on recipes. Only time will tell if this book is effective.
