I am a big fan of the Better Homes & Gardens cookbooks - the recipes are pretty traditional and rarely call for exotic ingredients (i.e. things that are not readily found in my pantry!). This book does have a good variety or recipes. The chapters are: Pressure Cooker Basics; Soups, Stews, Chiles and Chowders; Poultry and Meat; Vegetarian Main Dishes; Vegetable Side Dishes; Desserts.

I *think* that this 2000 hardcover edition is exactly the same as the 1995 edition - the copyright date inside mine says 1995. So unless Amazon shipped me the wrong one, it's the same book. The hardcover is nice - it's spiralbound inside so it will be easy to cook from. But if you're looking to save a few bucks you can get the same recipes from the 1995 paperback edition.

There wasn't much to this book at all. I was very dissapointed in it. Did not find helpfull at all.

I was new to pressure cooking when I got this book. It has come in handy quite a few times.

with the company that I bought from and the time the book was recieved. The reason I rated it less was that the actual book isn't very good. It is nothing to do with the business. I will order from them again. The condition was even better than I thought when I ordered.

I bought the Better Homes and Gardens Pressure Cooker Cookbook at the same time I ordered the Faberware FPC400 Programmable Pressure Cooker. I was under the impression this cook book would be specific to the programmable pressure cooker but it's not. I've used a stove top pressure cooker for the past 20 years so I didn't need to add another cookbook to my collection for that type of use. I'm very disappointed with my selection because it is not what I expected. Does anyone have information about where I can get a cookbook for the Faberware FPC 400 programmable pressure cooker?!?
