Thanks for signing up for Voraciously's Essential Cookbooks! I'm Charlotte Druckman, and I've been in love with cookbooks for as long as I can remember. I have way too many, and I don't care; they all inspire me. I've covered them consistently as a journalist, started a wacky tournament to celebrate them and I've written two myself. From that experience, I've created a list of cookbooks that reflect the way we cook now. These 10 desert-island cookbooks will introduce you to experienced cooks who will teach you smart techniques, up your flavor and spice range, and deliver near foolproof guidance. Consider this 10-week newsletter series your new favorite (virtual) cookbook club. Here's what you can expect in your inbox the next 10 Mondays: - A featured cookbook that's as essential as it is memorable, and that introduces you to techniques, ingredients and flavor combinations
- Two recipes from each of the 10 titles that give you a sense of how these books can enrich your day-to-day cooking, while adding a few keepers to your recipe rotation
- An invitation to join our exclusive Facebook group for swapping tips, sharing recipe photos and asking questions.
Week 1 will hit your inbox this coming Monday. Don't forget to tell a friend! A quick note for Gmail users: This newsletter may initially show up in the promotions tab of your inbox.
