Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: Mastering the Elements of Good Cooking
By Samin Nosrat
A New York Times multiple bestseller, 2018’s James Beard General Cookbook of the Year and the inspiration for the acclaimed docuseries on Netflix, it seems like everyone knows this book (if they haven’t already binged the whole show). I often turn to it, myself, for the basics, because Samin knows how to bring together the simplest ingredients in just the right balance: I’ve revisited “Boiling an Egg” or how “to Make a Mayonnaise” time and time again. I love the way this book looks, too: its charming, hand-drawn illustrated instructions give a homey and intimate feel to these 100+ recipes. It truly does live up to all the hype.
