The collection, which was limited to books currently in print, can serve as the core of any cook's library, whether the person is new to the kitchen or an experienced cook. Of the hundreds of excellent culinary books published every year, only a few speak to the cook in a certain way. While some books say "delicious," some say "beautiful" or "inspirational," it is the rare book that says "you can depend on me." The James Beard Foundation Book Awards Committee’s selections provide a wealth of practical information including ingredient selection, equipment use, proper cooking techniques, recipe ideas, menu planning and wine pairing. They also provide inspiration, advice, and a shared sense of joy in the craft of cooking. All of the books were written by established authorities in their fields whose work continues to be valid and useful year after year “We tried to make the list both broad and deep by including various types of cooking, major international cuisines, and reference,” says Kathleen Purvis, Chair of the James Beard Foundation Book Awards Committee.
