Know any references for kitchen design/culinary basics?
Heya!
This is sort of a two part question,
But it goes together.
First off:
I’ve been hand drawing house floor plans/ designs (Kitchens, particularly) for several years, and recently I acquired a computer design program that does floor plans, wiring, 3d design and all.
I’d like any references you have on good design, and furnishing, I guess you’d say. Anything to do with the physical structure of a kitchen.
Second:
I love cooking! I feel every girl should know how to cook and improvise, so I’m starting to practice more things. I’d like websites where I can find great recipes (I know about epicurious.com) like forums or anything. I’d also like any ebooks, or pdf documents of cookbooks, and books for culinary basics, plating, or a good book with terms, techniques, untensils, and accessories. Sort of a cooking dictionary I guess? Any information is super appreciated, And I’d love as much variety of things to study.
Thanks!
