Advent

Anja Dunk

I opened this book and could not put it down! Anja Dunk explores the rich tradition of the German Christmas season, with recipes full of cinnamon, nutmeg, and almond. The book itself is gorgeous: with inviting photos and stunning linocut illustrations, you'll want to curl up with a blanket and a warm mug of tea (or maybe gluhwein). For fans of "Classic German Bakes" and "Christmas Chronicles", or really any baker or lover of the holiday season.

The Christmas Chronicles

Nigel Slater

I adore this book. It's about more than Christmas, it's an ode to winter that I get out each November and read through to February. Nigel Slater's writing and recipes are the perfect companion in the sometimes dreary months of the year.

Win Son Presents a Taiwanese American Cookbook

Josh Ku (Author) , Trigg Brown(Author) , Cathy Erway (Author)

One day I hope to visit Win Son, the restaurant & bakery in Brooklyn, but until then, there's this fantastic book. I immediately went out & stocked my pantry so I could dive into these fun, flavor-packed, colourful dishes. There's a slightly modern twist, while still covering a wealth of Taiwanese classics: try Chinese broccoli salad and the amazingly named "Flies Head!"
