We’re all about summer entertaining and while we diligently watch FoodTV when we’ve got some downtime, we’ve never been one to master multi-taking watching the small screen and cooking/baking. We need a book, a picture, and ample time to master most recipes. Luckily, pretty much every celebrity chef we admire has at least one fabulous cookbook. Here are 10 of our faves.

1. Daniel Boulud’s Café Boulud Cookbook

2. Bobby Flay Grill It

3. David Chang’s Momofuku

4. Giada at Home: Family Recipes from Italy and California

5. Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics

6. Thomas Keller’s Ad Hoc at Home

7. Paula Deen’s The Deen Family Cookbook

8. Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking

9. Rachael Ray 365: No Repeats

10. Joel Robuchon’s The Complete Robuchon
