  Hey I translated the word as it is. If you want to suddenly change the argument from cooking vs baking to recipe books, I don’t see why you’re complaining.

  Baking is a chemistry and following an exact recipe unless you’re very good at what you do, cooking is free form and putting a spin on recipes.

    No one in English calls it that. We call it a cookbook.

    If the issue is that baking isn’t cooking and mowing is gardening in your language, that’s not how it works in English.

        Look, I know you think you know English better than I do, but you do not.

        This is one of the most popular English cookbooks in the world. I get most of my baking recipes from it.

        Now at this point, you’re essentially trolling and I think it’s about time you stop.
