    Old Standard

    This cookbook is the one I've been using for 40 years. It has standard old recipes and updated new cuisines such as French, Chinese, Mexican, and Cajun. My old book was falling apart, so I ordered a replacement at a VERY reasonable price.

  • Review of Joy of Cooking--75th Anniversary Edition

    The 75th anniversary sticker says it all: this cookbook has staying power because it contains basic recipes and culinary information that every cook can use. The blurbs include the likes of Julia Child, Craig Claiborne, and James Beard enthusiastically praising it as a kitchen essential.This book was bought as a bridal shower gift (it was on the bride's registry), indicating that modern brides consider it as much a starting point for their cookbook collections, as did those of us who married decades ago. It was also a non-intimidating manual for my son to take to his first apartment. As an experienced cook, I replaced my 1960s era copy that was worn out with a cerlox-bound edition, and I still refer to its substitution lists and "know your ingredients" sections for quick, easy to ...

  • Amazing Cookbook. Vielen Dank Irma!

    Irma Starkloff Rombauer (30 October 1877 - 14 October 1962) was the author of The Joy of Cooking. It is one of the world's most published cookbooks, having been in print continuously since 1936. More than 18 million copies have sold since the Great Depression. Irma Rombauer published her recipes and anecdotes during that time in the hope of lifting America's spirits. Today, nine revisions later, the Joy of Cooking, selected by The New York Public Library as one of the 150 most important and influential books of the twentieth century, has taught tens of millions of people to cook, helped feed and delight millions beyond that, answered countless kitchen and food questions, and averted many a cooking crisis. Born in 1877, Irma Rombauer’s young life was uniquely charmed. She was a member of ...

  • The Bible of American Cooking

    The Joy of Cooking is a very comprehensive, detailed yet simple cookbook. I came across this book (can't remember which edition) 7 years ago when I started working as a cook for a non-profit group and had little formal training and formal experience. I was able to be come successful using this book by grounding myself with cooking fundamentals and then unleashing the taste of real home made cooking. This book covers all the basics of cooking as well as very advanced concepts including making your own meat or vegetable stock; completely homemade meals, preparing convinience foods; making your own pasta and even growing your own garden (in the index)! I have turned out entrees and soups that have been described "the best" by a good number of people including the book's recepies for beef ...

  • This book has become my first resource of all the100 + cookbooks I own.

    My friend is a really gourmet cook who routinely uses ingredients I have never purchased and am not even sometimes familiar with. She said this book was her first and most important resource, so even though I already have far more cookbooks than can ever fit in my kitchen even if I removed all the pots and pans, I simply had to order this one, too. I am glad I did. It is well written, has extensive information about the product such as diagrams showing the cuts of meat and then recipes that give appropriate preparation methods and so on. I like the way the index is organized, and will never again purchase a lovely country church regional cookbook because the indexes are unuseable, with computerized entries just as they were turned in, instead of being categorized for usefulness (i.e., ...
