Each year, I invest in a few cookbooks and it’s something I always look forward to. I love learning about various cooking techniques, recipe origins, cuisine cultures and all the various styles of ways to prepare ingredients. Cookbooks are something that can be passed down from generation to generation and continue to tell a story whether it’s that of the how the dish came to be or your interpretation of creating it. These are my favorite 10 cookbooks of 2021 (so far!) that I cannot recommend enough. Aside from hundreds of collective recipes, you’ll learn so much about families, the world, and yourself through each one.
