Excellent addition to our cook books collection
This is a very well-organized book, with simple, clear, specific directions on how to cook a variety of vegetarian dishes. It starts with the basics of cooking and goes on to describe how to make some tasty, good-looking dishes. Has lots of pictures. We just got the book and finished browsing through it. My wife and I are vegetarians and cook a lot, and we can tell the recipes are good. We ...

joy of cooking
very dissapointed in this minature version of this classis cookbook. I thought I was ordering a regular full sized joy of cooking. I saw nothing when ordering that indicated that this would be a minature (a joke perhaps). I'm concerned about returning it as I may be charged again and then have about 9 dollars wrapped up in shipping charges and no book. You've given me cold feet about ordering ...

Cook up some classics!
Originally a self-published book in 1931, and no less than nine revisions later, this thick volume of recipes (it's got to be at least 3 inches thick) is a great addition to anyone's cook book library. But wait! This book is not merely just a collection of recipes- although with 4000 classic recipes and an additional 500 new ones, that would make it worth buying alone. No, this cook book ...

Lovely Design & Yummy Food
This book has the nicest page layout of photographs and recipes I've seen in a long time. It has recipes for simple things like different kinds of hot cocoa to cinnamon rolls, oatmeal, and tarts. The picture of the apple walnut muffins makes me salivate! This would make a great gift.

A grand overview
This is a great book that should serve as a reference to other cook books. I often find a recipe in other, more specific books, and then cross reference the ingredients and procedures with "The Joy of Cooking". i have also found the beverages section to serve as a very helpful guide to many "standard" mixed drink recipes.

The best cookbook on the market
I was given the 1964 edition of The Joy of Cooking by my mother when I was in my teens and there is no better than this one in our opinion. Mine had fallen apart from years worth of use and the one that I received was in practically mint condition for a 40 year old version. I would recommmed this to all who love to cook.

My go to book for fast everyday family meals
I'll start this review by saying I consider myself a little bit of a foodie. I have many cook books that cover all the basic types of cuisine we enjoy. Most of these cooks books have been used to execute elaborate dinner parties, to impress. But, when it came it cooking every day food on a budget, I was sometimes at a loss. I finally broke down and asked my mom for the Joy of Cooking for my ...

THE FIRST COOKBOOK YOU SHOULD BUY
I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING COOKBOOKS FOR 40 YEARS AND THIS IS MY ALLTIME FAVORITE! N0 COOK SHOULD BE WITHOUT A COPY OF THIS BOOK. BASIC EVERYDAY COOKING TO CLASSY ENTERTAINING IS COVERED. IF I COULD ONLY HAVE ONE COOKBOOK IN MY KITCHEN, IT WOULD BE THIS ONE. A GREAT PRESENT FOR A NEW BRIDE OR A BATCHELOR

Fantastic re-issue - before major publishing
This book is the 1st, as in before they got picked up by a major publisher. Don't let that kid you. This book is GREAT and professional. Irma made up the style of cookbook we know today. Listing all ingredients up front etc. A true pioneer. She took her book to a little printer and had a run made. That book (which this is a faithful copy of) fell into the right hands and the rest was cookbook ...

Holiday cookies that look great and taste good!
I've used this cookie book when making holiday cookies for family and friends for the last several years, and the results have always been a huge hit. Too often Christmas cookies look great but taste terrible - not something to worry about with this book. I particularly recommend the Cranberry-Cherry Pinwheels. They are delicious and surprisingly easy to prepare. However, be forwarned that ...

The Joy - What Else?
I spent half a day just reading through this one - you will be digging out mixing bowls, flour, sugar, butter, baking sheets, and cooling racks after about 15 minutes into this book. Well, what else can you say about the American dynasty of cooks? The photos are beautiful - if they don't get you, nothing will!

You can prepare a different salad every night
Cooking in the summer is drag. It can make your whole house hot. I recently found a great new book I fell in love with. This book on salads and dressing is produced by the Joy of Cooking folks. So you know they will provide excellent recipes. I have always had a hard time creating salad dressings, and original salads. Guess what? This book does it will ease. This book is well organized, ...

Practical book
I bought four different books in preparation of the harvest season and having no idea what to do with 40L of berries. Of the four, this is the only one that is effectively illustrated, nicely organized and gives you all you need to know in a little more than 120 pages. It covers all the sorts of fruits and veg that most people will be happy with while leaving room for variation and ...

Ultimate cooking experience
The Joy of Cooking has made cooking a truly satisfying experience for me. But it's much more than a recipe book for great food. If you ever wanted to know how to choose fresh fish at the market, or how to use foil when baking or any of the hundreds of questions you have when cooking but have no one to ask, you'll find many answers here.This book is a treasure trove for cooks or would be cooks. ...

Flavorful
All About Grilling, is a refreshing book of new ideas for outdoor cooking and entertaining. I was very impressed with the different combinations of ingredients, the presentation of the meal, the grilled side dishes, and the rubs and sauces. I received the book as a gift and have enjoyed using it for my summer entertaining. I am now purchasing a book for a friend.

Simple instructions to follow. Lots of helpful hints. Plenty of pictures to demonstrate and explain. I use this particular cookbook exclusively to make pies. I don't bother to read any others anymore.

A comprehensive soup making guide
Finally a book on soups that feeds my passion for good soup recipes. This book contains a wide variety of soup/stew recipes. Not only does it contain american homestyle recipes, but it also contains other favorites such as egg drop soup, and other ethinic soups as well. This book is peppered with photos and illustrations that aide you in food preparation, as well as showing you what the final ...
