A little while back, Jeff bought me Samin Nosrat's beautiful cookbook, Salt Fat Acid Heat. It's absolutely gorgeous, has some of the most amazing food graphs, and it's thick as hell. It's also got a hell of a lot of text. I kept it separate from the rest of the cookbooks in my kitchen so that I could thumb through it (that rarely happened), but it was in prime place for me to gaze lovingly on the brilliant cover.
