Book Description

October 1, 2007
This updated, comprehensive compendium of recipes, techniques, and cooking advice—compiled by Susan Westmoreland, the director of the famed Good Housekeeping Test Kitchens—belongs on every kitchen bookshelf!
For more than a century, the Good Housekeeping name has stood for quality. And this dazzling update of the magazine’s classic volume continues the tradition. It’s the best all-around cookbook—kitchen novices and expert chefs will turn to its 1,000-plus recipes again and again. Entirely new sections cater to today’s cooks with fast, easy, and healthy weeknight recipes. Stylish photographs grace the pages, and favorite features—such as the vegetable and fruit photo glossaries, test-kitchen sidebars, and informative chapter introductions—are up-to-the-minute. Get the very best of appetizers, soups and stews, meats, poultry, fish and shellfish, eggs and cheese, pasta and sauces, salads, breads, sweet treats, and more.
As always, all the recipes—from Quick Quesadillas and Butternut-Apple Soup to Cajun Meatloaf and Jamaican Jerk Chicken Kabobs to Roasted Peppers with Fresh Basil and Flambéed Bananas—are easy to read, simple to follow, and triple-tested by Good Housekeeping.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes cooking fun, February 21, 2008
By 
This review is from: The Good Housekeeping Cookbook: 1,039 Recipes from America's Favorite Test Kitchen (Hardcover)
This cookbook really should be in every kitchen. This isn't your grandmother's cookbook. The book is in full-color, the recipes are updated and modern, easy-to-follow, and they work. I made a delicious hollandaise sauce the other day and it was surprisingly easy. Last weekend I made a carrot cake, including the icing, and it was a big hit at my dinner party. Now, instead of thinking "Where will I go for dinner tonight," I think, "What can I make for dinner tonight." Do yourself a favor and add this great cookbook to your kitchen library.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bad Binding, January 19, 2008
This review is from: The Good Housekeeping Cookbook: 1,039 Recipes from America's Favorite Test Kitchen (Hardcover)
The recipes are great, and layout of this cookbook is good, but the binding on the one we received was poor. The back half of the cover is held to the pages by one thin piece of paper, and that paper was already torn when we received the book.

This review is from: The Good Housekeeping Cookbook: 1,039 Recipes from America's Favorite Test Kitchen (Hardcover)
This is a great cookbook to have on hand when you are trying to expand your knowledge in the kitchen. I have tried several new recipes from this book and they have all gone over very well with my family.
