Post the recipe for peanut butter.

>>12120382
>Mock Chicken
>Blanch and grind a sufficient number of peanuts until they are quite oily; stir in one well-beaten egg; if too thin, thicken with rolled bread crumbs or cracker dut; stir in a little salt. Boil some sweet potatoes until done; peel and cut in thin slices; spread generously with the peanut mixture; dip in white of egg; fry to a chicken brown; serve hot.

>>12120339
I have this one, no idea if it’s rare or unknown. I bought it for 50 cents at a Good Willl.

>>12120418
Are the recipes good?

>>12120418
Here’s a random recipe from it.

>>12120418
>bought at goodwill
>no idea if it's rare or unknown
Half of the things at goodwill are rare and/or unknown, but that doesn't make them worth the 50 cents you paid to contract aids just to make a bowl of soup.

>>12120435
Here’s two more.

>>12120440
Lmao are you allergic to poverty or something?

James peterson's books are pretty good. Very educational instead of being just a list of recipes.

>>12120432
Eh, I haven’t really tried any yet. Kinda just sat on my shelf for a while because I don’t follow recipes much. Probably should give them a shot but I’m broke till Friday so any cook alongs will have to wait.

>>12120339
Manybooks.net has some bizarre old ones. I also have the alcatraz cookbook and one done by a lady from the symbionese liberation army she released as a legal fundraiser

>>12120418
can you show me irish and beef stew brother?

in b4 poo

>>12120497
No recipes in it for either but there is this supposedly Scottish soup

>>12120508
poo

>>12120440
not how aids works.

>>12120515
Can confirm, that's commonly eaten in Scotland.
Cullen Skink is another Scottish soup, I've no idea if it's known outwith Scotland.

>>12120663
The only qualm I have with the recipe is that the chicken is just boiled and not seared first. Is that the way Scotts do it across the pond?

>>12120663 here.
It is against my beliefs to reply to tripfags.

Post some more recipes please 'non.

Amazing early 2000s tome for baking with a lot of variety and options:

https://www.amazon.com/Sweet-Kitchen-Definitive-Bakers-Companion/dp/1579652085

While many cookbooks include chapters on tools and ingredients, Regan Daley's award-winning tome begins with almost 400 pages of introductory information. From her descriptions of ingredients to explanations of food science, it's clear Daley's done her research, and she offers a wealth of information as reference for both the professional and the novice. She covers every ingredient in a baker's pantry, from flours and sugars to eggs, fruits, nuts, spices, and flavorings, in a way that is both interesting and informative. She discusses how to choose them, use them, and why they do the things they do. She's tested tools and shopped around, and even recommends price points for your purchases. She explains myriad techniques, such as how to cook sugar and icing and assemble layer cakes.

If she'd stopped at 400 pages, this would already be a must-have for anyone at all interested in the sweet side of the kitchen--but there's more. Daley's collection of recipes follows, and they cover the gamut from simple and straightforward to seductive and exciting. Some are actually quite complicated, but her explanations and descriptions of each step ensure success. Many recipes feature a flavor twist that will take your breath away, such as the Sweet Potato Layer Cake with Rum-Plumped Raisins and a Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting, Lemon Anise Churros, and Caramelized Banana Tart with a Lime Linzer Crust and a Warm Caramel Sauce. Other recipes bring back childhood memories, such as her All-in-the-Pan Chewy Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Butter Icing (mixed right in the baking pan) and Wild Blueberry Pie. This exhaustive volume was the 2001 IACP Cookbook of the Year, an award that it richly deserves.

Was a gift from my now deceased step grandma.

I learned how to make Italian buttercream from his Baking book. Many of the recipes come with detailed guides that help a lot.

I don't know if it's pleb tier or not, but Joy of Cooking has served me well forever.

>>12120339
best cookbook is ramsay's first one 'passion for flavor' because it's a book made for chefs. He squeezes flavor out of everything, like his incredibly simple Broccoli soup which is just water, broccoli and salt but tastes like no other broccoli soup you've had.

I have a couple books

GOAT Italian cookbook. Very famous.

very nice. How do you grab all at once?

>>12122295
Whoa. Thanks dude, that's a lot.

>>12122169
It's not. It's a must have.

Are there any good cook books, or I guess just books, that tell you everything about the food and spices? Not necessarily recipes, just pages of info about food. Like an entire page on paprika and it's taste, how it's made, what it pairs with, and so on for other herbs and spices. But also pages on meat and fish and how it's made, various ways to make it, etc.

I've tried to find one on my own, but I haven't found one yet.

>>12123373
that covers it. so does Mrs. Beeton's. But keep in mind how old those books are. They are both littered with information which is flat-out wrong pre-scientific bullshit.

American Cookery by Amelia Simmons
The first and oldest cookbook in America

Anyone have a PDF of pic related, or the Fallout one?

>>12123490
You don’t even need a cookbook for Fallout recipes. Here’s a couple for you:

Pork’n’beans
>buy a can of pork’n’beans
>buy radioactive minerals off the internet
>place all ingredients in a box
>let it sit in your basement for 10 years
>remove can, open with a combat knife and serve cold

Iguana Bits
>kill a man
>cut him into bite-sized pieces, discarding pieces with recognizable human features
>put meat bits on skewers
>grill over a burning tire pile until well done
>sell to starving homeless people for 8 caps a skewer

not a cookbook but still aboit food, others books of the author are still interesting

do they make books that aren't full of a bunch of bullshit recipes but actually teach you how to cook?

I have one from 1918 that covers almost everything you would need to do in a home and a navy cookbook from WW2 thats great for recipes for large amounts of people

>>12120339
Does this count as rare/obscure?

>>12125465
um sweetie that has to go

>>12125508

you sir are a true God..the Roy Choi book was actually good..I tried to get the cone in.we're closed..didn't work..hard to put into goggle books..there's a few huge files, wouldn't transfer over?
americas test kitchen was one..you have a keen eye for amazing styles..asian, ice cream, bee keeping..great swath of knowledge..any help on the huge download into goggle books would be awesome..
I would suggest:
milk bar (Christina Tossi)
kitchen creativity (Karen Page)
Boucher - (Antonio Boucher)
for sure..
not a super heavy cook, but would be into reading a fermanration, Wd50 book, along those lines if anyone has some..

>>12123164
Karen Page has a book, flavor bible..I don't have, am getting..heard it's essential..
The dude Kenji Lopez has a great book that covers a huge swath of info..
The dudes a compete waste, left wing putz, but the actual book is a good read

>>12127498
MegaMan here, I have no idea what you said.
You're trying to copy the entire archive to Google?
I have not explored transfer options and I don't care to.
I just build the archive and whatever happens after that is not my problem.
The hundreds under "!To Sort" is a problem as well as the unseen in "Finished Torrents"

>>12123490
Oh boy!

Last week was "Gardening"
Filled that folder up pretty good.
This week I'm doing outdoors. I'll probably split the Camping folder somehow, haven't decided yet

Probably because its a really old recipe where the chicken wasn't as safe as it is today and was often replaced with wild game meat instead.

She's good too

What books I've been using for recipes for the past couple years:
>the 2 Joe beef cookbooks (entertaining as well)
>the entire cookinginrussia youtube companion book collection by greg Easter
>The Perfect Scoop: Ice Creams, Sorbets, Granitas, and Sweet Accompaniments by david lebovitz (also use his blog for baking recipes sometimes)

How is that Cooking in Russia book? Been looking into buying it myself

>>12120515
Is that for when you get the drip from some hooker slash?

>>12131371
I think youtube broke all his annotations so you pretty much have to buy the books if you want to make any of his recipes. They're good books though, they have a lot of info not in the videos
