We all have those spots online that we have to check everyday, one of my must stop points is amazon.com, you really can find anything there. From books and dvd's to fancy French salt you can find it there. I'm a big fan! It even picks things out for me to buy, that is so sweet, just like my own personal shopper. I have discovered a few new and coming soon cookbooks that are must haves!
When it comes to the organic slow food movement there is only one person, Alice Waters. She is one of the three people that did more for cooking and food in American than anybody else... the others are Julia Child and James Beard. But you all knew that already, right...? Her new book is a must have and is filled with easy, flavorful and amazing recipes. Also check out her website and see Alice and other famous chefs make some simple green foods.
Another new cookbook is one of those books that is even more than just a cookbook. You will want to sit down and enjoy each and every page of this book, just take it all in. John Besh is a New Orleans chef that loves his city and the food of the region. Shrimp Creole, White Chocolate and Meyer Lemon Semifreddo with Vanilla-Poached Berries, Louisiana Blackfish with Sweet Corn and Caviar, Grilled Watermelon, Tomato, and Goat Cheese Salad and what could be more New Orleans than a Crawfish Boil.
Williams-Sonoma always puts out fantastic books and coming in July is "Cooking from the Farmers Market"
And so new to the list it doesn't even have a cover picture yet is Ina Gardens, the Barefoot Contessa's newest book "How Easy Is That?: Fabulous Recipes & Easy Tips" I love Ina and is pretty much the only one that is still watchable on the Food Network, she is always so lovely and everything she makes is simple but amazing. Can't wait for this one to arrive to my doorstep!
