Personally, I believe that if you like a certain cookbook - or even just one recipe in it - you should work to keep it clean. If you're hoping to give it to a friend/relative when you die and it's now out of print, chances are that person will be repelled by a dirty cookbook.

I just keep the cookbook a couple of steps away from the action. I've already splattered one page of the "Anne of Green Gables" cookbook, and I don't want to do that again.
