Great Recipes and Interesting Facts Rating:
5 / 5
I have recently purchased a copy of "Keepsake Recipes and Fascinating Food Facts". I have thoroughly enjoyed the book and its' unique approach to cooking. The recipes are hard-to-find traditionl varities that are easy to prepare and remind me of "mom's cooking".
Three cheers for Irene Graybill Buckman! Rating:
5 / 5
What a delight to read a recipe book that sticks to basics, to the tried and true, and to the wisdom of appealing to the good ole tastebuds! From methods of cooking meats and vegetables, to the very serviceable time charts for roasting turkey and beef, and the clear explanations of the types of cuts and birds, to the tidbits about the origins of recipes (I loved to know the story about the Tollhouse cookies) this book is a treasure trove of information and good advice. Buy several for Christmas and wedding gifts. Clueless bachelors and bachelorettes can benefit from putting to practice Ms. Buckman's recipes.
From the workshop to the kitchen Rating:
5 / 5
With a few chosen food facts, and a very concise manual of recipes, I'm finding the same pleasure in the kitchen that I used to find in the garage. I'm enjoying the craft of cooking as I would contruction. This book spells it out clearly and concisely, and got me startd in the kitchen. A few new tools, but an easy transition. It's easy to start cooking when you get some help understanding the basics, and are provided with some practical, time honored recipes. I don't even have to learn French. It could be labeled "Cooking for Dummies", or "If I had only knew these things sooner, I would have started cooking years ago".
