Book Reviews of James Beard's American Cookery

Book Review: "Old Friend" in the Kitchen
Summary: 5 Stars

I used Beard's American Cooking, cook book in the 80's. I lost my copy, with lots of annotations, somewhere in the 5 moves, I made during the following years. I bought this one, since it was like a "old friend" in the kitchen. It is, once again, getting it's share of scribbles and changes. It is one of those you can pick up, decide on a menu for the family, and almost be sure the ingredients are on hand.An excellent source of ideas and items to please the most discriminating pallet. I highly recommend this book or anyone's kitchen.
