Hardcover. Condizione: Good. (From the Foreword) "This special collection of recipes is a celebration of America's great culinary heritage. Many are classic recipes, direct from the pages of Good Housekeeping Magazine; others have been newly developed for this book. All of them, whether traditional or contemporary, have been brought up to date. We've included calorie counts for each one, and made certain that they use the best ingredients, and fewest special utensils. We are also photographed them in attractive settings to provide inspiration for serving. Each finished dish is shown in the Color Index at the beginning of the book, accompanied by a caption giving its main ingredients, the time needed to prepare it, and the number of servings. In this way, you can browse through the pages selecting the most appropriate dishes for your meals since you'll know at a glance what you need to make them, as well as the time they will take to cook. Once you've decided, you will find the recipes set out in an easy to follow step-by-step format; many of the recipes are accompanied by a complete set of diagrams. Therefore, even beginning cooks will be able to use the recipes successfully. Of course, it helps to bear the following things in mind: When you prepare a recipe for the first time, read it through carefully to make sure that you have allowed enough preparation time. Before beginning to cook, assemble the utensils needed and measure all the ingredients. Avoid substituting key ingredients, product forms (such as regular or instant) or package sizes, unless the recipe suggests an alternative. Be cautious, too, about doubling or halving any recipe; although some can be increased successfully, many more cannot. For best results, make up the recipe as given and, if a larger quantity is desired, repeat the recipe a second time. Seasonings and spices can be varied safely according to personal taste, but it is always a good idea to follow the recipe directions exactly for the first time. By following these few tips, and the wealth of diagrams and photographs throughout, we hope that this book will provide all the necessary practical information, plus the inspiration, for you to serve a multitude of memorable meals - not only on special occasions, but every day.".…

A cookbook or cookery book is a kitchen reference containing recipes. Cookbooks may be general, or may specialize in a particular cuisine or category of food. Recipes in cookbooks are organized in various ways: by course (appetizer, first course, main course, dessert), by main ingredient, by cooking technique, alphabetically, by region or country, and so on. They may include illustrations of finished dishes and preparation steps; discussions of cooking techniques, advice on kitchen equipment, ingredients, tips, and substitutions; historical and cultural notes; and so on. Cookbooks may be written by individual authors, who may be chefs, cooking teachers, or other food writers; they may be written by collectives; or they may be anonymous. They may be addressed to home cooks, to professional restaurant cooks, to institutional cooks, or to more specialized audiences. Some cookbooks are didactic, with detailed recipes addressed to beginners or people learning to cook particular dishes or cuisines; others are simple aide-memoires, which may document the composition of a dish or even precise measurements, but not detailed technique. The first modern cookery writer and compiler of recipes for the home was Eliza Acton. Her pioneering cookbook, Modern Cookery for Private Families (1845), was aimed at the domestic reader rather than the professional cook or chef. This was an immensely influential book, and it established the format for modern writing about cookery. In 1885 the Virginia Cookery Book was published by Mary Stuart Smith.[29] In 1896 the American cook Fannie Farmer (1857-1915) published The Boston Cooking-School Cook Book which contained some 1,849 recipes. The term cookbook is sometimes used metaphorically to refer to any book containing a straightforward set of already tried and tested "recipes" or instructions for a specific field or activity, presented in detail so that the users who are not necessarily expert in the field can produce workable results. Examples include a set of circuit designs in electronics, a book of magic spells, or The Anarchist Cookbook, a set of instructions on destruction and living outside the law.
