COTM Nominations -- Winter Quarter 2026 (January–March) Cookbooks of the Months

Here is the Meera Sodha thread:

I have lost track, when will voting close? And will the quarter be the full 3 months since we are not starting until February? I am hopeful that the book I am backing wins as I have been cooking out of it a lot and would love to start sharing and learning from others.

Thanks, don’t know how I spaced on that.

Last call for nominations!

SAMIN NOSRAT quarter

My other vote was for Good things only. Just want it to be clear.

Great idea thanks for organizing this!
I’ll take a look through some options and join in. For now, I’d like to nominate:

MAANGCHI
It’s accessible, fun, and there’s lots to cook along with. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else suggests!

Nominations end today!

Looks like Samin Nosrat quarter will be one of our choices, and we will have a vote for the second.

Right now, the choice for the second book/thread would be among the following:
Sami Tamimi
Jamie Oliver
Jacques Pepin
Diana Henry
Techniques

If nominations concentrate today, the voting choices will narrow.

So if you have some feelings on a second choice, get your nominations in!

Oh gosh, this is tough. Am I assuming correctly that we only get one vote? Added as a response in all caps?

I think we’re still in nominations until tomorrow.

No no – still in nominations today!
Hoping we might be able to narrow down the choices for a vote on the 2nd option.
We’ll use the site poll feature for the vote.

Nominations are now CLOSED.
We will put up a voting thread for the second thread choice shortly.

Will the voting thread link be posted here???
