Books: Mollie Katzen

"The Savory Way" by Deborah Madison. My favorite cookbook.

A classic book that, upon rereading, disappointed:"Mastering the Art of French Cooking" by Julia Child. Formal and methodical, where I've come to prefer spontaneous cooking and eating, as in: slice one perfect tomato and call it lunch.

A much-recommended book that you've resisted reading:"Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver. There's something about preserving the shroud of mystery around an esteemed fiction writer.
