Cook’s Books Sets
Made to Order at Juniper Custom in Boulder, Colorado
Every serious kitchen has its references: the books that teach technique, settle debates, and turn an ordinary weeknight into a meal worth remembering. This set gathers five of the most trusted, from Julia Child's French method to the encyclopedic Joy of Cooking. Between them they hold thousands of recipes, from a classic roast salmon to a comforting eggplant parmesan.
The custom book jackets are simple and clean, made to sit beautifully in any kitchen, in blue, red, green or grey. Each jacket is printed on high-quality paper, much like an art print, and finished with a matte laminate that makes it durable, tear-resistant and lovely to handle. It is a set for the home cook ready to master the fundamentals, and a generous gift for newlyweds, a friend setting up a first kitchen, or the person who already cooks for everyone.
