Book Reviews of Bistro Cooking at Home

Book Review: A New Staple for my Bookshelf
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm picky when it comes to cookbook shelf space. My habit is to only keep around cookbooks that I love. After 20 years of cooking, I have kept only about two dozen books (aside from the vintage Foods of the World series by Time Life).

Having said that, *Bisto Cooking at Home* has become one of my go-to books. Just as a previous reviewer said, the Chicken recipe on p182 alone is worth the price of this book.

What all my favorite cookbooks seem to have in common is that they not only deliver great recipes, but they also educate as to why they taste great. This book is no exception.
