Béchamel bitch.. Considering your reading, spelling and comprehension skills, you need more than just a book on gravies..

A pair of nuts would be a good start.. Feg

I like science-y cookbooks that give you techniques and explain why it is being done the way it is.

You'll like "On Food and Cooking".

For quick meals, I like "Cuisine Rapide" by Pierre Franey. For Louisiana food, it's hard to beat the River Road series but I also like most of Prudhomme's & Folse's books. My mom always liked Folse's Plantation cookbook and I've recently started cooking out of it. I'm liking it a lot. For good veggie recipes, I use "Green on Greens" and "The Victory Garden Cookbook". Fitzmorris' Creole cookbook is a recent addition and I really like it.

I made a joke reply to someone else. You replied to me. Please stop getting your panties in a wad, you’re derailing the thread.

Dude can only make one kind of gravy so he hurls personal insults at anyone who can make several.

Cooks Illustrated

I've been using this one recently. Sort of a science/tested recipe book. Some of the chicken recipes are spot on.

My go-to comes from a relative who teaches in a small town in West Louisiana. It was done as a FFA project to raise money. Just a crap load of country cooking recipes. It is supposedly every families favorite, best, or most liked foods. Some are pretty basic, but I have yet to run across one that isn't good.

My sister discovered my and now a lot of other people's favorite casserole from this book.

For those that enjoy science based cooking like The Food Lab, be sure to check out Meathead Goldwyn's book titled "Meathead: The Science of Great Barbecue and Grilling" It's all science based around BBQ, grilling, meats, etc.
