For my wife and I, it's Big Vegan Flavor

Also if you like baking, The Vegan Baking Bible is a must!

Yeah, I wish there was an easier way to distinguish what I'd call actual "cook books" from the vast sea of "recipe compilations".

I.e., books that go over techniques, but then maybe just give some recipes as examples.

    The Wok by Kenji Lopez-Alt fits that description perfectly. It is a massive book, filled with a lot of technique and explanations, and additional recipes.

    A similar book is Salt Acid Fat Heat by Samin Nosrat. She also has a short Netflix docu where she dives into depth about each part. It has accompanying recipes, but the main focus is on the know how and techniques.

    Might take a look next time I have some free time around the library. Shame I usually end up in that situation on days they are closed.

    Then again I think there is one not too far from where I work, hour long lunch break with very little else to do.
