I'm still winnowing our collection. This includes three oversized books that are selling for $20-25 on Amazon. If you're interested in any or all of them, make me a reasonable offer; I'll then let you know the cost of media mail shipping.

Culinaria Spain

Aromas of Aleppo: The Legendary Cuisine of Syrian Jews, by Poopa Dweck

Ad Hoc at Home, by Thomas Keller.

 

There also are five books that are on Amazon for $3-6, so I'd sell them here for a couple of bucks plus shipping. I'd also be glad to include one or two of them gratis if you buy one of the three above.

My New Orleans, The Cookbook, by John Besh

Real Stew, by Clifford Wright

Cooking with the New American Chefs, by Ellen Brown (a fun nostalgia trip to 1985)

The Cancer-Fighting Kitchen, by Rebecca Katz (surprisingly good recipes)

The World in a Skillet, by Christopher Kimball

After 200+ views and zero replies, I guess it's almost time to donate them to our public library system or to our community college's culinary program's library. So, it's your last chance here. Make me an offer...

For years I have "recycled" books at a local used book store, like Green Apple.     Might one of these           work for you?

 

Good idea. I'll check.

keep considering

 

''  our community college's culinary program's library ''

 

might get a lot of use there .

 

Indeed. I've donated many volumes over the years. It's a good program, and I've both cooked and taken classes in their kitchen.
