🎓 Reddit experts on cooking encyclopedias
The comments and opinions expressed on this page are written exclusively by redditors. To provide you with the most relevant data, we sourced opinions from the most knowledgeable Reddit users based the total number of upvotes and downvotes received across comments on subreddits where cooking encyclopedias are discussed. For your reference and for the sake of transparency, here are the specialists whose opinions mattered the most in our ranking.
this two volume set of cookbooks is really the only two cookbooks you need until you get super-advanced. They cover everything from beginner to advanced, everything from cuts of meat to pie crust and fancy deserts. Not all these books look alike - there were several printings in the 50's. My Mom owns the set that has a green cover... they are falling apart now but are worth being rebound. They are what I learned out of. They teach the types of things you're looking for in bullet (1).
Equipment: borrow it from friends & family until you've used it five times, then buy it. (it can get expensive, and if you're not careful you'll end up with a bunch of stuff you've only used 3 times and stored 20 years.)
Start with a good knife, a two quart sauce pan, a tall/big soup pan, a frying pan, and a cutting board, a cookie sheet, a casserole dish. Those are things you'll use forever. Surprisingly, you don't always have to go top-line. I'm still using a set of aluminum sauce pans my Gran was using... um...85 years ago. Metal lasts. In fact, while you're learning, it's probably better not to use super-expensive pots... I've burned a few, especially when I first started doing a lot of cooking. ;) Check out Goodwill. They'll have most of this stuff.
I don't have much experience with spice growing. Just starting myself.
You were asking what to stock your kitchen with? Flour, sugar, cream of tartar, baking soda, baking powder, yeast. Basic spice set. Rice. Pasta. Then try to do everything else as fresh as you can... for me it works best to buy 1 or 2 days of groceries at most... that way I cook what I have, avoid spoilage, and am buying what i'm in the mood to cook (not having to cook what i was in the mood for last week).
Hope you have fun!
Usually, for every magickal endeavor you want to make incense for, there is a household correspondence that you can use to make it. We wouldn't be Witches if we weren't crafty, right?
Some texts that will help you find correspondences (If you can't buy them yourself, you can always browse them at a bookstore and take notes. Places like Barnes and Nobles carries these kinds of books. They are worth buying secretly and sneaking home, imho.) :
and while you're at it, for extra sneakyness:
There are other books out there about herbalism, but Cunningham's books are simple and effective primers to get you started down the road towards Herbalism. Just remember, there is WAY more advanced stuff out there, and if you care to learn it, you can.
For more immediate help regarding making incense, A video about Herbalism from Cunningham: [Herb Magick] (http://youtu.be/Mn6B2m1pLoE). The video may not have an extensive correspondence list, but it'll get you down the road.
PLEASE DON'T POISON YOURSELF.
Delicious!! Thank you so much for documenting your egg sandwich process. I wish you'd make one for me.
I have this wonderful set of cookbooks called the Women's Day Encyclopedia of Cookery, from the 1960. I always ignored it as just a pile of old books until one day I pulled out a volume at random. I read the article on eggs. It blew my mind and really changed the way I cook.
Eggs should be cooked over low heat. Now the eggs I make are delicious, just like the way your sandwich looks.
Nice photos, by the way.
Also, if you really want an interesting cookbook to go cover to cover on, you could always consider Mme. Jehane Benoit's ENCYCLOPEDIA OF CANADIAN COOKING. She was a friend of the family when I was growing up so I may be a little biased on this one, but she is not called the Canadian Julia Child for nothing. She has a couple of books that can be purchased used on Amazon and would be well worth the minimum expenditure.

Rien que le premier paragraphe est un festival. Humblebragging (je glisse gentiment que moi, je m'approvisionne en circuit court, bien que ça n'ait aucun intérêt pour la question traitée), placement de produit (avec un lien pour l'acheter sur Amazon, il est loin le marché des producteurs), rhétorique douteuse (je peux pas faire A, donc je fais B, il n'y a pas d'alternative)...
J'ajoute qu'il n'y a pas d'espace fine insécable avant les nombreux points d'interrogation, mais ça, c'est surement plus à cause de Slate que de l'auteur.
Pas envie de lire plus loin. En survolant, je vois l'argument que ça se fait depuis les années 30. Dans les années 30 on a aussi fait pas mal de conneries, ma bonne dame (j'offre un point Godwin à qui comprendra la référence). Ou que des enfants ont eu des accidents en échappant à la vigilance de leur parents. Bah oui, et tous les enfants échappent parfois à la vigilance de leurs parents, peu importe la liberté de mouvement qu'ils ont habituellement. Et parfois il y a des accidents. Mais toujours moins que quand on le met sur le siège d'une voiture.
Et oui, laissons les parents tenir les enfants en laisse si ça vous convient et que ça convient à l'enfant. Sinon, le faites pas, c'est cool aussi. C'est un détail insignifiant dans les rapports éducatif et émotionnel qui doivent lier les parents et les enfants. On s'en fout. C'est mal écrit. C'est mal argumenté. Pas la peine d'en écrire une tartine de 3500 mots - 6 pages sans la mise en forme, putain !
Et je constate après avoir écrit moi-même ma tartine en commentaire que c'est un poteau largement – et à juste titre – bas-voté, et que personne ne le lira. Merde, je devrais me mettre a écrire pour Slate, moi. Je veux même bien vendre mon âme au diable et vous recommander chaudement ce délicieux chocolat fait avec du cacao récolté par des vrais enfants à l'autre bout du monde et expédié par des prolétaires exploités au compte de l'homme le plus riche de la planète (mais ça va, je mange bio).
Found it for $7.
Matches everything you said. From 1948-1996, and it has 896 pages.

Buy this, discuss and "test" during meetings.
Il faut que j'en achète d'autres pour varier mais j'utilise recettes inratables pour ma tribu.
Alors par contre dans ce bouquin un truc qui me fera toujours marrer: la présence d'une catégorie "plats végétariens" dont plusieurs contiennent de la charcuterie. Je sais pas si c'est une erreur ou un troll, mais je trouve ça extraordinaire.
I found it on amazon japan
J'ai recu ce bouquin en cadeau, il est vraiment pas mal.
Les recettes n'ont que 3 ou 4 ingredients et c'est tout, donc c'est souvent tres rapide et facile a faire !
EDIT: oups j'avais pas mi le lien... /u/Znellia j'ai édité!
