Purchase one for you too - you wont be disappointed. The basics of cooking and easy to read recipes makes it easy to use. There's wonderful recipes that you'd serve for guests, not just quick 'n easy ones. I LOVE this cookbook. A+ all the way. After reading all the reviews I thought it was the best choice and now I'm really pleased I got it. Bought it for my 18 yr old son who wants to learn to cook on his own. Thinking that I might get one for me too.
Perfect for any beginner. This book is one of my new favorites already. This cook book is full of pictures and helpful hints on each page. Makes cooking seem easy and not stressful.
I got it for my daughter, but I picked up a few tips from it myself. This is a great book for beginning cooks. Good explanations and tips.
Even if you are not a beginner, and just need some great common American recipes you grew up with, this is a desirable book to have. Some of these pages include details of what a sauce pan is, to how to cut a pepper correctly. Although, some recipes you will find through practice, you will want to change a few things to your own taste liking, but if directions are followed, you will be successful. This is a great beginner's cook book filled with basic recipes with common ingredients and well known choices. Anyone can cook, as the clarity of the recipes are simple, and the break down explanations of necessities and details are pictured and labeled step-by-step.
I paln on buying more as my grandchildren move away from home. Not only does it explain what some basic terms mean it also suggests begining cook and bake ware. I hope it never goes out of print. This is a great basic cookbook. Ideal for anyone who is just learning to cook and/or setting up house for the first time.
