William Sonoma cookbooks

[Raquelita]

Does anyone else have their books? I received one as a wedding gift and it is just GORGEOUS. The photography is beautiful, and the recipes are clear and fairly easy to make (though not all our taste, there are a number we do enjoy). It's called "Classics" and is american and french themed cooking. One thing i've found with their recipes is that fresh ingredients are a must or the dish will not taste as good.

I noticed that Williams-Sonoma has a new cookbook out called COOKING AT HOME. I'm curious to see if others enjoy using their cookbooks.

I was glad to see this thread!

I just checked out the Williams-Sonoma Classics book and found a CHEAP used copy, plus 2 other WS large-format coffee-table books (many of the WS books are smallish, but several are indeed extra-large... if you check the measurements/weight always at the bottom of each book's page, you can see...) on entertaining- all the reviews mention they're all three loaded w/ stunning photography, so I can hardly wait!
