To find the year’s 25 top cookbooks for F&W’s Best of the Best, I tested more than 150. Best of the Best offers several of the tastiest recipes from each winner, as well as one never-published bonus recipe. The oddest-sounding dishes were sometimes the most revelatory, like farfalle with yogurt and zucchini. Here, a sampling of those bonus recipes.
