The tasteful cookbook
Martha Stewart, the renowned American gourmet, businesswoman, writer, and TV personality established an empire anchored on cooking and other activities that naturally accompany it, such as home and living.

Chicken Soup for the Soul, a series traditionally viewed as a universal remedy for persistent and embarrassing colds, provides more than just a warm and comforting meal.

French Lessons in Africa: Travels with My Briefcase Through French Africa by Peter Biddlecombe is a highly readable, hugely entertaining introduction to Francophone Africa.

The book also blends exotic dishes with local ingredients, evoking tons of creative memories passing from one generation to another as a family heirloom.
A tastefully done cookbook is more than a collection of recipes of tasty dishes and compelling imagery. It must have a personality, a personal touch, like a renowned master chef’s signature dish. It must have adventure elements, blend exotic dishes with local ingredients, and evoke good and bad memories, passed down from generation to generation. Embrace the adage that the way to another soul is through the stomach and that the best kind of laughter emanates from a full belly, lighting up the kitchen and living room.
