Superb Cuisine For DummiesJul 30, 2009
I have cooked for a lot of years, using my cookbooks and family recipes, with moderate success. I got this book from the library, and my daughter (8) and I cooked a superb dinner of mushroom stew accompanied by asparagus with Dijon vinaigrette. My wife came home, tasted dinner and nearly died of shock. It was that good, and very easy to make.
Anything that allows me and my daughter to read, comprehend, and execute as fine a meal as we did is just Superb!

Great Wedding Gift for a new homemaker. Feb 20, 2009
This book is over 575 pages and covers all the basics. Cooking times, how to debone a chicken, scrambling eggs so they're not runny, kinds of equipment, substitutions...it's all here.
There is no other book needed for the new cook. This has all the information, hundreds of photographs with step by step directions. Any new cook would be happy with this purchase. It's a staple of the cook's library.
The recipe on the Anise Wafers was the easiest and best presentation that I've ever seen. This is all from scratch and so you know it's healthy without MSG and other preservatives.
Definitely a wedding gift.

From gourmet to everyday cooking-in spelled out stepsNov 16, 2008
This cookbook breaks recipes down into steps and lets you know how much time is going to be required. Great illustrations, easy referencing. This is my second step by step cookbook.

My First Great CookbookAug 21, 2007
We all have memories of cooking with Mom and her extremely well used cookbook. The one with the dog-eared pages and stains, their ultimate guide to new recipes and old techniques. When I turned 21, I decided it was time that I set out on the hunt to find my own staple cookbook and after looking at everything else out there, I picked this one.
From cover to cover, this book covers all of the information I needed to know but never knew. It has tons of great recipes ranging from the classics (like step by step instructions on how to cook my first Thanksgiving turkey)to new favorites like Pad Thai. The pictures are informative and inspiring. But there are also guides to nutrition, menus for different events and holidays, how to set a table and entertain. There are even explanations as to the different types of cheese or cuts of meat and where they come from.
This is not the type of book that just teaches you how to MAKE recipe. It is a book that teaches you how to know what to buy, when its in season, what it goes with and essentially how to CREATE a great variety of meals. Mom, I think I've found my cookbook. :)

Favorite Cookbook!Jul 05, 2006
My husband & I received this cookbook as a wedding present and we have yet to find a bad recipe and we've done a lot of them! Our friends now thing we are GREAT cooks and we enjoy sharing these great recipes with them. We've even given this cookbook as gifts multiple times. It is virtually the only cookbook we use! I love the tips and instructions in the front of each section too--really easy to follow and understand.
