Since revamping CL’s online food section at the beginning of the year, we’ve been lucky to recruit a cadre of talented home cooks and serious chefs to contribute their favorite recipes. If you’re a regular of the site, you’ve seen them stream through every week, often with gorgeous food-porn-worthy photography to illustrate the potential rewards of your kitchen labors.

Now, it’s even easier to find something good to cook for dinner. We’ve taken all of the recipes CL has printed online and in the paper over the past five years and compiled them in a comprehensive CL Cookbook with over 200 tasty, ready-to-make treats. Browse through and plan a week’s worth of meals before your trip to the grocery store, or just search out something special to spice up an upcoming dinner party. It’s even divided into categories to make things easier.

Whether you’re looking for a simple breakfast frittata for a weekend brunch (there are four different versions listed), need a special dessert to compensate for a particularly trying day, want tips on cooking the perfect steak, or would rather see a professional chef do a video demo than read a dry recipe, The CL Cookbook should be your first stop.From rabbit to chicken, Ethiopian to Italian, we’ve got you covered.

To inaugurate the launch of The CL Cookbook, we’re encouraging you to send us your favorite family recipes. If we think they’re worthy, we’ll print them online and add them to the Cookbook. And if you have a favorite dish at a local restaurant and want to try to replicate it at home, drop us a line and we’ll try to convince the chef to divulge a few secrets. You can even request a recipe for a particular dish and we’ll ask our creative contributing cooks to whip up a version just for you.
