Recipe Holder
My
wife, Colleen, comes from a tradition of great cooking. In our family over the
years the cookbook or recipe card was placed on the counter amidst the
ingredients. As a result, our cookbooks and cards are smudged with lots of
character.
I have recently taken on cooking dinner and found I had to keep moving the cookbook and recipe card. Though I didn’t want another item
on the counter, I felt we needed a recipe holder.
That night in thinking about a space saving cookbook/card holder I realized I could incorporate our angled knife rack as a support for a cookbook without increasing the footprint size by much more than the original knife rack.

After scavenging 4 pieces of 8”x 8” vertical grain fir and laminating them
together I ended up with a block of wood 3”x 8”x 8”. That is not much
material. I jointed a flat face
and working edge. One thing led to another and soon I had this holder that integrated
with the knife rack.
