The International Association of Culinary Professionals (IACP) Cookbook Awards annually celebrate the year's most outstanding food and beverage publications.

The IACP Cookbook Awards have become the industry's most coveted acknowledgement of excellence in the cookbook publishing world.
THE FOOD SUBSTITUTIONS BIBLE includes more than 5,000 substitutions for almost every kind of food, ingredient, and measurement imaginable. Easily organized from A to Z, the book is full of handy reference charts, ingredient guides, common cooking measurement equivalents, metric conversion tables, and international equivalency tables for temperatures, weights, and volumes. The straightforward, no-nonsense design makes every entry, chart and sidebar easy to find and even easier to use.
