The Joy of Cooking: Single-Volume Edition

The Joy of Cooking: Single-Volume Edition by Rombauer, Irma S.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780452254251.

Americas most popular kitchen bible has been revised for the first time in more than 20 years. Much is still familiar -- the recipe structure, with ingredients listed as they are called for, has been left intact, for instance -- but theres plenty thats new. Concerns about healthy eating are reflected throughout the new Joy , but old-fashioned, fat-laden dishes arent gone entirely -- there are still plenty of appealing recipes for pies, tarts, puddings, eggs, and meats that set cholesterol scales tipping. As in previous revisions, changing tastes in food and the widening influence of ethnic cuisines have caused the most major changes in Joy . This is the ideal book for beginners, and a great reference for experienced cooks to have on hand as well.
