This web site has been my on-line “dwelling base” for practically twenty years. It was initially constructed on the premise that while you personal over 100 cookbooks (raises hand!), it’s time to cease shopping for, and begin cooking. This web site chronicles a cookbook assortment, one (vegetarian) recipe at a time. However there’s a bit extra to the story now that we’re a pair many years in, so right here’s some again story on each me & the positioning.
101 Cookbooks began in early 2003 once I seemed up at my big cookbook assortment one afternoon and realized that as an alternative of exploring the totally different books in my assortment – I used to be cooking the identical recipes time and again. This web site aimed to alter that. Within the years since, I’ve cooked many fantastic vegetarian recipes, vegan recipes, WFPB recipes, and Prompt Pot recipes, and baked a lot magic. Lots of the recipes are my very own, plenty of others are impressed by cooks and writers I love. Alongside the way in which I’ve written 5 cookbooks, turn out to be a New York Instances Finest Promoting writer, and a two-time James Beard Award winner. I really like cooking with pure meals and components, and Tremendous Pure Easy is my most up-to-date cookbook (March 2021).
By means of all of it, 101 Cookbooks has all the time been the place I come again to. It’s my playground for exploring concepts, and the place I can work together with the cooks as they’re inviting these recipes into their very own kitchens. I’m so very grateful for all the buddies I’ve made, and provoking cooks I’ve met by this web site.
