I consider cooking a craft. I found this post from Casual Kitchen on Foundational Cookbooks, listing six foundational cookbooks to own that you'll actually use. Embarrassingly, I don't own any of these. I think my first purchase from this list would be the Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook
and then the Sundays at Moosewood Restaurant.

My foundational cookbooks are my Mennonite Treasury, a Taste of Home collection from the year we were married, and a whole lot of Company's Coming cookbooks. I don't know how people in the know feel about Company's Coming but I got a lot of them as gifts when I got married and I like that the ingredients are common things that I usually have.
My top six are:
-Joy of Cooking (a gift from a friend a few years ago, and it has been in very frequent use since)
-Better Homes and Gardens (affectionately referred to as the red-checked book)
-What's Cooking Chicken by Tom Bridge
-Canadian Living Cookbook
-Company's Coming Easy Entertaining
-Dad Cooks up a Party (Bob Sloan)
