Yes. It’s delicious!

Excellent!

Cook What You Have by Milk Street 177 for $10.00. It’s 36. Amazon.For at least 10 years, there has been a Home Senses that is no more than a 10 minute drive from my home… Today, I went there for the first time. A whole row of cookbooks prices no more than 12. Hope it doesn’t become a dangerous hobby.

A Milk Street Cookbook was my purchase at Homesense on March 15, 2020, my last cookbook purchase before a year of home cooking. :joy:

Not a cookbook, a magazine.

The Presse Internationale on Bloor in Toronto will close at the end of Nov, as they look for a new location. Rent jumped something like $4500 CAD a month, from whatever it already was.

I splurged on this Australian magazine, Gourmet Traveller’s Feb 2024 Greek Issue. Around $31 CAD and change. :joy: . Nice photos. Not too many recipes. The recipes inside are interesting ones.

I have around 50 Greek cookbooks in my collection.

I have used a number of recipes from Gourmet Traveller’s website over the past 5 years.

Gourmet Traveller has one big Annual Recipe issue (which covers many of their recipes) which is worth buying if you can find it - the regular issues are too expensive for what you get

The Recipe Tin Eats lady, Nagi Maehashi, has a new cookbook: Delicious Tonight … ebook loan from my library.

I browsed through it, looks good. Bold flavors, Asian bent.

Has anyone bought RLB’s revised and newly-released “The Cake Bible”? I have a moratorium on buying cookbooks, except for ones by RLB and Anne Willan, but I’m hesitating about even TCB as I’ve temporarily stopped baking, but wondering if it’s worth getting. Besides, I don’t need one more cookbook.

Big RLB fan and owner of the original, but i haven’t looked into this yet.

Received What Goes With What by Julia Turshen a couple of days ago. It is very meh IMO. I loved Small Victories and was okay with Now & Again. Simply Julia didn’t do much for me and I can’t say this one does either. I have a few recipes marked to try but I don’t think I will get much use out of it.

“Dishoom. From Bombay with love” - Shamil Thakrar. Kavi Thakrar & Naved Nasir

A birthday present which I’ve only just round to picking up.

Recipes fbased on the offerings of the eponymous London based mini-chain. They now have branches in a small number of places outside the capital, including one near in Manchester. I’ve not been and probably won’t go as they don’t take reservations - I’m not schlepping into the city on the off chance of getting a table without a considerable wait.
