The work for which we reserve top honors this year isn’t a cookbook, but rather Michael Pollan's The Omnivore's Dilemma. Leite's Culinaria names the 20 best food books of 2006. I've only read five of them, and by read I mean "at least opened the cover and read a few pages of it, if not the whole thing." Pathetic. I will endeavor to do better in 2007. [via Ruhlman]
