sin(Derella)'s note
Samin Nosrat's book breaks cooking into four elements and teaches you to adjust them, so you can fix a dish instead of following one. Wendy MacNaughton's illustrations make it a pleasure to flip through. It is a framework, not a list, which is exactly how I like to learn anything.
