I am 63 and I’ve been through a lot of cookbooks. This is the best all-around cookbook I’ve ever used because it includes basics all the way up to more involved recipes. Mine worn out - I’m on my third one - and was lucky to find this one at a great value.

The cookbook was in excellent condition. This is my favorite edition (11th). I use mine all the time and I'm now purchasing the same edition for my 2 adult sons so they can have mom's favorite cookbook to make their favorite recipes.

I have had this book in my kitchen for as long as I have been cooking 30+ years and refer to it often. I love that you can take pages out from the binder and take them with you, like to the store. When a friend recently moved out of her parent's home into her own apartment, she told me that she goes out to eat a lot due to her lack of basic cooking knowledge and skills. I thought this book would make a perfect housewarming gift. It shows all the basics, how to stock your kitchen, how to boil an egg, etc. I noticed that in this particular one it shows how to choose ripe fruits and vegetables. How great is that?! I wish I had that in my first cookbook. It is a must have for any new cook.
I remember this cookbook being in my Mom’s repertoire of cooking resources back in the 60’s. Basic good wholesome recipes with easy how to steps in preparing meals. It’s a must for any starting out homemaker. Quick to find tabs separate out the categories and the ringed notebook design allow for easy to remove pages to have recipe access on a crowded counter.
