The Silver Palate Cookbook

Shop Notes:

This is a fantastic cookbook for those who have mastered the basics and want to increase their cooking mastery.  Namely because it's chock full of incredibly reliable and delicious recipes that cover a wide breadth of the American Palate.  The Chocolate Cake recipe is one of my favorites and is always a hit with guests.  This will become one of the workhorses of any cookbook library, large or small.
