5.0 out of 5 stars Just like being in the kitchen with the author, October 20, 2000

I' m not a great cook, but I love finding a resource that gives me the never-fail basics. This is it. The book even details how to boil and egg just right! As I read the book, I felt as if I were right in the kitchen with the author -- her experienced eye watched me and guided me as I worked through the recipes. I agree with one of the other reviewers who said this would make a great wedding gift.

This book is super for a shower or wedding gift. Actually, for anyone who is just starting out learning how to cook. It not only has good basic recipes with good directions...but, it also tells the reason things are done a certain way. I've been cooking for a long time and this book taught me a lot.

This review is from: Keepsake Recipes and Fascinating Food Facts (Paperback)

Would you believe a never-fail pie crust? It's true. I have made at least 25 pie crusts using Mother's recipe. Never a failure. Well, so I am the author's daughter. Whether you are just starting out or have been cooking a long time, you will find this a delightful source of recipes to try out and experiment with yourself. Mother believes in the cook adding him or her self to the process. The tidbits of information are fascinating. It is a fun book to read. I think you will agree that the book is appropriately titled.
