As we step further into the holiday season, we gather with loved ones and share tenderhearted moments typically around food. Whether we are trying new recipes or making family favorites that have been passed down through generations, food always helps to warm the soul. Here are a few of the cookbooks I enjoyed flipping through, trying recipes from, and gifting this year.

Company: The Radically Casual Art of Cooking for Others by Amy Thielen

On the Curry Trail by Raghavan Iyer

Tenderheart by Hetty Lui McKinnon

Snacking Bakes by Yossy Arefi
