My first cookbook should be everyone's first cookbook: The Joy of Cooking :D

I loved it then and now, it's duct-taped together and right next to the second cookbook I ever owned: How It All Vegan and the third: Passionate Vegetarian.
Arguably the three best vegetarian cookbooks ever written and I own all three. :D

4. I'll have to look for them. |

I'm not vegan but am vegetarian. I wasn't, though, back when I first started cooking on my own, thus my recommendation for The Joy of Cooking. I'd still recommend it to veg*ns, too, because it covers technique and equipment, not to mention plenty of vegetable and fruit dishes :)

I collect antique cookbooks, it was originally my grandfather's cookbook. He worked as a sous chef at Antoines Restaurant in New Orleans, but left to work offshore for the oil companies, making three times as much. Unfortunately he slipped coming out of a helicopter to the right and drowned. I still use the recipes from that book! Whenever you are stumped with a way to prepare anything, it is in that book (like the time our Guatemalan neighbors gave us the skin from the pig they had slaughtered, I made cracklins and they loved me).
