Last year was a tremendous year for cookbooks so there are a lot of books to be excited about. Between Jenny’s monthly new cookbook reviews, our Best Cookbooks by the Experts, Best of the Best cookbooks, and the forthcoming bestselling books of 2022, we pretty much have our Members covered for the top books. As with anything, however, sometimes there are sleepers that deserve more praise than they receive.

The Independent’s Prudence Wade has provided us with her top three books that might have slipped under the radar (well, not Jenny’s radar – nothing gets by her). Wade provides short reviews for the books, plus there’s a recipe from each as well to whet your appetite. Wade’s “hidden gems” for 2022 are:

Did you discover any “hidden gems” this year that didn’t get much press attention or praise? I can’t weigh in on this because I still have a stack of cookbooks I haven’t even cracked open yet. There might a gem in that pile, but it will be sometime before I find it!

    For new cooks— but also for a not-so-new cook like me— I really liked “Ready Set Cook” by Dawn Perry. It starts with a a lot of great elements of good food, the kind of things that the latest OTK cookbook has— sauces, dressings, crunchy additions to meals— and then has a variety of foods and even things to do with leftovers. The food I’ve made has all turned out delicious, and she really walks you through it, which is why I just gave a copy to a new cook.
