Williams-Sonoma Simple Classics Cookbook: The Best of Simple Italian, French & American Cooking by Chuck Williams
This is by far my favorite cookbook. Which is odd, because I loathe the William Sonoma store itself. Not the things inside, which tend to be quality items, but the whole fu-fu overpriced model of it (I do buy their overpriced martini glasses, some of them are beautiful).
Regular family favorites from this book are:
Chicken Curry, Baked Beets in Cream, roasted chili peppers in cream with shallots and basil, chicken with sage and calvados and a few others. I really need to keep trying new show more recipies in this because everyone I've tried is a winner. One note on the chicken curry -- I started with his recipe, but now I add onions, garlic, ginger and use more hot curry than he recommends. I tend to make an additional curry sauce that is very hot from a paste that I can add to mine. show less

This is an old version, but is excellent. Since reading this one, and using the salad recipes, I have discovered later publications by Willaims-Sonoma practically every year
Suggests six complete holiday menus, and includes recipes for breads, soups, salads, meat, poultry, vegetables, and desserts.
