Craig: I’m looking for a cookbook for my mom thats simple?
Hello future best answerer!
I’m looking for a cookbook that has a bunch of recipes and uses simple every day spices. I ran across “Fine Cooking Annual: A Year of Great Recipes” but idk much about it other than really good reviews. Any links of reviews or personal experiences would be great.

The biggest things i stress in the book is a wide variety of recipes (not heavily desserted)
and
Recipes that don’t use obscure spices and cooking methods.

I choose best answer
