Do youtubers or celebrities make any good cookbooks? I’ve been reviewing cookbooks and I’ve found most celebrity books to be bad or just ok, it always seems more like a marketing ploy than actually giving good info. I’m hoping Weismanns book is good since he tends to know so much, but who knows.

Good cookbooks usually explain a little history, science, and technique behind what you're doing.

Uff it's a rabbit hole and honestly, kinda an addiction. Recently I went through a Spanish craze, and have collected a bunch of them. I have the Arzak one and I like it, also two of El Bulli, one of the creative process, and another of the staff menus (which is the one that I get more functional use out of) also have the Berasategi and Roca ones, but don't use them as much as the other two.

From previous obsessions I've bought some from the Phaidon cookbook series (they're based off of countries, I have Japan, India, China and Mexico, the first three I found on a clearance isle pack, and the Mexico one was given to me as a present).

I've also bought a few French chefs, especially a decade ago since they seemed to have moved out of the spotlight and I would find a lot of them on used bookshops.

One of the things I would heavily encourage you to do is to buy books that revolve around ingredients you can get. I'm in a "foodie" city, that has a lot of markets and speciality stores, so I usually don't have a problem sourcing ingredients, but if you don't have access to that then honestly, you're better of buying cookbooks of your local cuisine and then seeing crazy processes that people do with food if that interests you. Also, be wary about weight, you very soon end up with and uncomfortably large colection.

It's all a bit pretentious, but hey, the book is cheaper than a meal in most of these places, and in some cases a meal isn't even possible anymores.

Lastly, my method of approach is that I list books that interest me so that they're in my radar in case of a sale or if I see them in second hand store. Fuck paying full price, you'd be amazed by the amount of shit people throw away.

Call me a cuck if you must, but I actually bought cringing's first cookbook back in 2017 for me and my mom. Since it's from before Babish completely sold out, it's mostly recipes for early/mid 90s movies he likes (when harry met sally, goodfellas, moonstruck, big night... n). Had quite a lot of fun going over it with my parents as they reminisced about all these movies they watched when they were younger and kind of forgot about with time. I even ended up pirating Moonstruck because of it and watching it with my parents.
Don't think I ever attempted a serious recipe from it, but I think it wasn't a particularly bad purchase.
