TRULY scientastic.

I'm really surprised that Larousse Gastronomique hasn't been mentioned yet. Of all the cook books I have, this is the one I refer to most. If I have an idea for a dish, but don't know where to start, that's where I go for inspiration. If something I make is OK, but not great, I use it to refine the recipe. Sometimes, I'll just open it up at random and just read a bit of it while I wait for things to cook, and it's always interesting...

That and 1000 Classic Cocktails are really the most used books in my kitchen. I have a few others that are nice to dip into when I want something specific or unusual, but these two see way more action than anything else I have.

Including my wife! :rimshot:
