Learning about Cookbooks

I have begun to read cookbooks. Not t learn how to cook, but because I am selecting cookbooks for a large urban library collection.

Egg - an entire book devoted to eggs. And the recipes were not exotic - trying to impress a foodie. These were very good easy to do recipes, including advice on hard boiling eggs.

Momofuku - this was a more complicated book. I preferred the Anthony Bourdain  series Mind of a chef which showcased the chef creator of the  Momofuku  restaurant chain, David Chang.

NomNom Paleo Cookbook - Paleo sounds like a very weird way to eat. The paleolitic era was not a cool time for humans.  I loved teh recipies in teh book even though I think the whole philosophy is not for me. NomNom recipies are interesting, easy, and great for families with gluten intolerance or milk/dairy allergy.

The text conveys the author's enthusiasm. This book is related to the blog of the same name.
