What’s a recipe book?
Recipe books are basically books that gives you a step by step procedure on how to make specific dishes. It contains ingredients you would need to make the dish, equipments and sometimes time it would take to make that particular dish.
Why do you need a recipe book?
Okay, so you are probably wondering why you need a recipe book. In my early days of cooking and even now, whenever I want to try out a recipe I do extensive research about it. I take into cognizance several factors before making the dish. Most times I also have to use my own expertise to determine whether a particular meal would turn out successful or not.
However, not everyone has time to be reading five, six and more recipes. Most people are quite impatient and that’s where a recipe book comes in. Recipe books contains tried and tested recipes. The author’s have already tested and fine-tuned the recipe to meet the taste of the consumers. So you are sure that whatever recipe book you are getting is accurate.
Still not convinced?
Some thoughts may come to you that, I could just search for a recipe online and use that. You may also think that food blogs would write accurate recipes so no need for a recipe book. Yes, food blogs actually write facts about their recipes most times, however you may forget the particular food blog you got that recipe from and then you are at loss. You can’t get the recipe because you can’t remember the site you got it from. A recipe book would always be handy especially e-book. You don’t have to try remembering where you got the recipe from. All you have to do is scroll through your phone and get the exact recipe you need.
I could book mark the site on my phone and go there whenever i need it.
True you could bookmark the page/site/blog and go there whenever you need it. However in the market place it would be very hard for you to start searching for ingredients you want to purchase than. Recipe books usually have the ingredients listed easily.
Where can I get recipe books?
You can get recipe books easily, you can download some online as PDF, you could pay for some and you could download some as apps. Everything is easy to get in this modern age, with google.
Are recipe books easy to get/affordable?
Recipe books aren’t expensive. Like I said you can get some for free while others you have to pay a certain amount of money. Some recipe books written by renowned chefs may however be expensive because of their years of experience.
