I've always liked The New York Times International Cookbook,
by Craig Claiborne.

I cannot say that it has dishes from every single country, but the
recipes will be wonderful, the instructions easy to follow and the
results dee-lish. Granted, you will need to convert your recipes to
Left Pondian measurements, but since the book is out of print, but
readily available used, the trade-off is terrific.
