I’ll buy a cookbook if the food-porn photos are delectable. Yes, I’ll buy a physical book, because sticky fingers go better with paper than with my phone or keyboard. Most of my cooking is pretty basic, but rarely highly processed or pre-prepared. I’m happy with a crudité plate, good bread, cheese or meatsy bits, maybe soup, and fruit. A couple of times a week, I’ll make something more extensive or elaborate. I don’t do basic American food, though. I didn’t grow up with it. I’m much more likely to make an Asian dish.
