This charming cookbook by New York-based designer Katie Shelly uses infographics to spell out recipes for aspiring cooks. The books break down the format of traditionally text-heavy recipes books into a number of simple ingredients and methods. Not only are the recipes contained incredibly easy to follow, but they are visually pleasing too.
The book blurb describes 'Picture Cook: See. Make. Eat.' as a book that "distills 50 homey recipes into their most basic components and renders them step by step in enchanting line drawings like nothing ever seen in a cookbook." This unique idea would certainly save time in the kitchen and would make an excellent gift for beginner cooks. The cookbook will be released in October 2013.
