Do You Buy Cook eBook?

I was browsing around somewhere today and found many of the people selling cook ebook. Well, if I want to try new dish, I would search on the internet for free recipes, if I want to collect the recipes “in real”, I would collect cook books instead. It looks like cook ebooks doesn’t interest me very much, how about you?

About 10 years ago I bought an Indian cookbook as an e-book. It's a little more difficult to use, but I can print off one page at a time.

I am with you on this one, wondericequeen. I do not think I would purchase a cookbook ebook. I do collect cookbooks and wrote an article about doing that. I often browse recipes on the internet. It's fun and I've come across some really good ones that way.

I don't buy cooking Ebooks. I like to buy normal cooking books but not for Ebooks. I prefer to search the recipes via the net and print them out. I like free cooking Ebooks only. I love China

Hello wondericequeen, I don't look for recipe online and I seldom buy a cookbook. I always try to learn new recipe from friends or family. I don't really find cook ebook as attractive and something new. Not all the recipes that you can find online are good to try. I mean, not all the time you can be success with your new recipe. I always look for certain chefs whom I know that with one first try, I will be able to cook whatever he taught me in his cook book.

I have some ebooks on cooking that I got for free. I do prefer normal, hard copy books, so if I find a recipe I want to use, I'll print it out. I have actually printed out fully some ebooks, although not cooking ones, and had them bound. The main advantage an ebook has is it's easier to search. Just not very easy/comfortable to read.

eBooks are a interestig way to buy recipes. Some people find it wasier to just print ou an individual recipe, rather than leafing through an etire book, while they are tryig to ook something. Others prefer o hae the whole book inront of them. To each her own, and it's nice to have the options. I published a cookook of Danish recipes some years ago, and it's in both paperback book and eBook formats.
