Cook the Book: 'The Craft of Baking'
Homemade baklava from the ladies at the Greek chuck.
Cook the Book: 'Gourmet Today'
My first cookbook as an adult was an "encyclopedia of food" from my mother. It's alphabetized by category like potato or egg and has extensive diagrams of meat even though I'm a vegetarian. I still use it all the time for measurement conversion and simple food.

What's Your Favorite Sandwich?
So many votes for Primanti Bros but no love for Uncle Sams? Their melty cheese sub gets my vote any day!

Cook the Book: 'Kneadlessly Simple'
I love the simplicity of no-knead bread but I do need to expand my repertoire.
Cook the Book: 'The Great Wings Book'
Pineapple salsa
Cook the Book: 'The New Mediterranean Diet Cookbook'

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box
The first time I tasted smoked Virginia ham and realizing that, in fact, I'm not angry at ham anymore.
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: D'Artagnan Boneless Heritage Ham
Mustard is the only necessary accompaniment on a world class ham sandwich.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Food Giveaway: Russ & Daughters

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box
I remember when microwave bacon contraptions came out in the late 1980s and my mom jumped on them. I am happy to say she has since given up on that technique.
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: D'Artagnan Boneless Heritage Ham
Spicy mustard on crusty bread still warm from the oven.
Cook the Book: 'How to Cook Everything, Revised Tenth Anniversary Edition'
No knead bread has totally changed the way I bake bread!
Cook the Book: 'Fat'
Rather than answering the questions the way the moderator would like, I'll say that even a vegetarian like me who loves to read about food preparation would like this added to her collection.
Cook the Book: Lidia's Italy
An Indian buffet is the perfect meal to impress meat eaters who won't realize the meal is vegetarian. Bonus points for homemade naan.
Cook the Book: 'The Vegetable Dishes I Can't Live Without'
I cannot live without spinach in almost any form. (I love Mollie Katzen!)
Cook the Book: 'The Food You Crave'
I crave spicy greens - like garlic rapini
What's Your Favorite Sandwich?
The roast beef at Manny's Deli in Chicago. I get it extra rare on an onion roll that is SOAKED in roast beef juice. The potato pancake and pickle on the side aren't too shabby either.
What's Your Favorite Sandwich?
The sandwich you make on Thanksgiving after all your guests have left is my all time fav and probably even more so because it's a special once a year thing. You know, it's that sloppy dagwood of a thing piled preciptously with turkey (reheated in a frying pan with a little oil so it's a little bit golden) mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, stuffing, and cranberry sauce held together by an entirely too small parkerhouse roll.
What's Your Favorite Sandwich?
The roast pork, greens and sharp provolone sandwich from DiNics in the reading terminal market in Philly... pure bliss!
What's Your Favorite Sandwich?
By the way, when you get the Junglee sandwich at Dimple's Bombay off the NJ Turnpike, keep in mind that it is HUGE! We ordered one each, and all 4 of us had to bring the second halves with us the rest of the way home. It was pretty good cold when we arrived--but even better hot in the restaurant. It takes a few minutes waiting for the order, but the Junglee is a wonderful, delicious reason to make a stop while driving.

@arwenb yay! another potbelly lover!
What's Your Favorite Sandwich?
I can never resist a good burger - like the one at 25 degrees in Hollywood, which was reviewed quite nicely by Damon Gambuto on this very site.
But, my all-time favorite sandwich is my own customization of the Reuben featuring both pastrami and corned beef, like the one at Junior's Delicatessen in West Los Angeles, which I recently posted on my blog.
What's Your Favorite Sandwich?
It's hard to beat the offerings at Sandwhich in Chapel Hill, NC. They make the best tuna salad I've ever tried, a bacon-apple-mushroom grilled cheese, and an incredible "Paratha" with chickpeas, fennel, eggplant, and a handful of Indian spices. I just moved from Chapel Hill and I'm having serious withdrawals!
