Love this? Share it!

I love a good cookbook. Even though you can get just about every recipe online at a moment’s notice, a good cookbook can really teach you to be more confident in the kitchen and keep your dinner routine from becoming too dull. So for your own sake, keep the chef in your life happy with these gifts for the cook!

Written as a bit of a love note for his son who was off to college, this cookbook teaches the basic fundamentals of cooking.

2. For the BBQ master:

I am pretty sure this is my husband’s favorite book. Lots of great techniques for all the pitmasters out there.

3. For Everyone:

Perfect for newlyweds or anyone who wants a great reference cookbook that has almost everything you could want. I love lots of pictures in a cookbook normally but these instructions are so clear and easy to follow you won’t miss them a bit.
