My first cookbook was the Betty Crocker cookbook.
Cook the Book: 'Zingerman's Guide to Better Bacon'

Cook the Book: '660 Curries' by Raghavan Iyer
My first encounter was at a restaurant in San Francisco. I don't remember the name, but it had a view of the bay and it was lavishly decorated in pink.
Cook the Book: 'Canal House Cooking, Vol. 1'
I like to grill wild Alaskan salmon with sesame oil and soy sauce.
Cook the Book: 'Mrs. Rowe's Little Book of Southern Pies'
One of my triumphs was gumbo. I finally mastered roux and now the world of cooking is mine.
Cook the Book: 'The Barcelona Cookbook'
My only experience has been at a tapas restaurant in Ca. Not as exciting as Barcelona, but someday...
Cook the Book: 'L.A.'s Original Farmers Market Cookbook'
My favorite stand at the La Quinta Farmer's Market is the Temecula Olive Oil company. Unfortunately, the market closes for the summer as the produce would turn to toast.
Cook the Book: 'Seven Fires'
I don't remember what it's called, but it has a lot of different kinds of grilled seafood...calamari, shrimp, cod, etc. mixed with rice.
Cook the Book: 'Endangered Recipes' by Lari Robling
I remember that my Mom made the best chile rellenos in the world. She used a blow torch on the chiles. I've continued to sample chile rellenos in restaurants as an adult, but never found any that were half as good.
Cook the Book: 'Bottega Favorita' by Frank Stitt
My favorite is lobster pasta with a white cream sauce.
Cook the Book: 'Serious Barbecue' by Adam Perry Lang

Cook the Book: 'Real Cajun'
I loved the chile rellenos my mother made using a blow torch to cook the chiles.
Cook the Book: 'The Asian Grill'
We were camping for Thanksgiving and planned to barbeque our turkey on our little Smokey Joe barbeque. We were off to a bad start when we discovered that the turkey was too large. I placed the barbeque lid on the turkey and it looked like it was wearing a cap. It cooked for hours and hours, late into the night, but was not done. We ended up eating all the sides, but no main course for Thanksgiving. The turkey was finally ready on Friday. Better late than never.
Cook the Book: 'Urban Italian'
asparagus ala parmigiana

We fell in love with reindeer sausage on a trip to Alaska. Now we have to send away for it and have it shipped to us from Alaska.

Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
My family did roast chicken dinners every Sunday when I was growing up. Can't beat grandma's cooking!
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
Spaghetti with meatballs and chunks of Italian sausage in a smooth garlicky red sauce, caesar salad with homemade garlic croutons, warm crusty Italian bread with butter, a nice barolo, and lemon cheesecake for dessert.
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
fajitas, hands down.
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
Layer sauerkraut in a casserole dish, place pork chops on top and season (I use cracked black pepper, garlic powder and smoked paprika), cover with lid or seal with foil, bake in 400 degree oven for 45 minutes. I like to make mashed potatoes with it, but have also just done steamed veggies on the side.

We called it "chicken and glop", but it was chicken and rice. How did my mother put up with us?
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
It depends on the weather for me, but at this time of year it's roast chicken, mashed potatoes, peas (homegrown, please; frozen peas from the store are inevitably overripe), green salad, and pie.

My favorite family dinner would have to be posole. We have it every christmas eve with fresh tamales and it is sooo good.
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
Gosh, my favorite family dinner!? That's hard . My family is full of great cooks so I guess it has more to do with the atmosphere. So then I would have to go with Christmas eve dinner. 14 cousins plus 16 Aunts and Uncles all eating and drinking and being merry. Usually there's a goose (which doesn't hurt) and floating islands for desert. super yummm, it warms my heart just to think about it.
