Thrilled

Love this revised edition. I have the original which has been much loved, and was looking for a fresher copy. Thank you

4 Generations in my Family

My grandmother used this book for years. When my mom married my dad, my grandmother gave my mom a copy. When I got married, my mom gave me a copy. When my stepdaughter got married, I gave her a copy. This is a must have cookbook. It has all the basics from how to set a table to how to cook any cut of meat. Don't miss the desserts!

If you have to buy only......

if you have to buy only 3 cookbooks this should be one of them. Need I say More. My own copy fell apart (1945 edition) was passed down to my. Now I want a replacement.

Best all around cookbook EVER

This was my first cookbook forty years ago...it is now frayed, cover gone, corners dog-eared, but the "meat" of the book still in tact. WE STILL USE IT! Now my daughter is 20 and out on her own...so what better gift than her own personal copy! I keep telling her anyone can cook a good meal from this book...it even tells you how to boil water, make coffee. It walks you through making sandwiches to serving a gormet meal. How many cookbooks can bost of that?!!!

1951:This was my mother's first cookbook after she married .

This is a fabulous cookbook! I have made many of the recipes and they always come out as they are supposed to come out. Very yummy, and what I like best is that it goes way back and has ties to one of the oldest Jewish communities in the United States. (Although it is not a kosher book).

This is the way to a man's heart!

The first dinner that I made for my husband-to-be was from this book. At the time I had three kids already and bills up the yin-yang. The dinner was delicious. It's been eighteen months and now we have 1.5 MORE kids and still alot of bills and he still raves about my cooking!
