Cookbook Fangirling: Recipes by Peter Elborn
That intelligent piece of book design that you find in office! Lunch breaks are meant for exploring the office library and when you are hungry it's best to look at cookbooks!
Peter Elborn's Recipes, is a collection of dishes that he has loved and tasted on travels around the world, cuisines that he loves to cook himself and feed his friends.
This book is an example of how book design is ever evolving craft in its own right, to design it as a MacBook with the infamous Apple logo is brilliant. The photographs inside the book don't necessarily replicate the final form of the recipes but echo more of the common ingredients used to make the dishes. From Jamaican to Bangladesh, cuisines from around the world are united by ingredients here.
Sadly, I will just drool at the book, as I am a terrible cook. I will never dare to try the recipes in it. I will just look and sigh at this lovely book.
And it is a self-published book, designed by the author on his MacBook. So people who are writers on my friend list, if you want to self-publish, you better up your game.
