Cookbooks............................................?

Feb 16, 2008 by fallsi | Posted in Cooking & Recipes

Why do cookbooks list information such as weight and volume equivalents, food/culture history, buying, storage and food preparation guides, tips for prosperity, menu planning, equivalent Celsius and Fahrenheit oven temperatures, and food substitutions etc?
Why are these sections in cookbooks?
Distinct examples would be nice.

Now, we dont' extremity that... we've got the internet and can google any of that stuff. But our mothers and grandmothers didn't have access to that info except in a cookbook.

Cookbooks were/are more than ethical a compliation of recipes... they explain the food science behind cookign and baking. For example, egg whites when whipped are more steadfast and hold their air better if a little cream of tartar is beaten with them. If you have a recipe calling for egg whites (or meringue), it may not touch on cream of tartar, but knowing about it enables you to add it and have more success w/ your recipes.

You can't make a pot roast if you don't have the proper cut of beef. Aliment buying charts and diagrams give you the common names for cuts of meat, so if a recipe calls for eye round, you remember what else it might be labelled and can buy the correct item for the recipe.

Meal planning allows you to not only fill your belly 3x a day, but also to plan your nutrition intake, so your food is balanced and contains a wide variety of healthy foods. Just winging it from day to day usually yields a less healthful subsistence intake.

Conversions: we have a lot of people here form both the US and UK, and we use different systems of measuring foods, baking temperatures, metric, etc. Even rare terms for the same food item. A chart containing this info will allow you to make "authentic" recipes from the UK if you are in the US, and your oven is not calibarated to "gas upfront 4" or Celcius temps.

What cookbooks are out there with Nutritional info for each recipe?

Apr 25, 2009 by Rachel B | Posted in Cooking & Recipes

I dear one to cook but am very health aware. I'm looking for cookbooks that have the Nutritional info of each recipe listed. Preferably on the same page as the procedure. (Vegetarian Cookbooks would be helpful, but others work too).

Thanks!

Your outwit bet is to buy a Food Calorie Guide (available at most bookstores)
That way you can check and customize the nutritional information of EVERYTHING you cook!

My cooking skills are very predetermined, most of which are for non-vegetarian meals. What cookbooks are good beginners guides for vegetarians inexperienced in making vegetarian meals?

This is an older record, but has some good, simple recipes: Quick Vegetarian Pleasures: More than 175 Fast, Delicious, and Healthy Meatless Recipes by Jeanne Lemlin

This is another probity one for easy recipes with some good variety also: Student's Vegetarian Cookbook, Revised: Quick, Easy, For a song, and Tasty Vegetarian Recipes by Carole Raymond

Madhur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian: More Than 650 Meatless Recipes from Around the Time is one of my favorites. Amazing variety and well worth the price! Some of the recipes have less common ingredients and a few are complicated, but a great many of them are quiet enough for a beginner and are very tasty!

Good luck :)

I markedly like baking cookbooks. If you don't really know any, could you give me some websites that could help me. Thank You!

I started out with the Larger Homes and Gardens Cookbook. It has everything you would ever want to learn about cooking and instructions (simple) on how to do certain things.
