Summary: 2500 short & simple recipes. Simple the way they should be.
Review: 50 categories of recipes. And 50 recipes in each category. That's 2500 recipes. How do you fit 2500 recipes into 477 pages? You write real small. Which means that each recipe is very short (a small paragraph the size of a want ad generally). This is not bad. In fact it's very good. How complicated can a recipe that short end up being? And simple recipes are best.None of the recipes have very many ingredients. Most of the ingredients are common. Although I admit my favorite recipe (to read, I haven't made it) is the authentic Russian Dressing recipe, which contains a spoon of caviar (what's more Russian than that?) Most of the recipes are more basic. Greens. Fantastic salads (salads have gotten a bum rap, especially when this author is done choosing ingredients for them). How to make a perfect French Fry. How to cook a steak. And thousands more recipes. Fast and simple recipes for any and all occasions.

Summary: A fabulous cook book
Review: Extremely easy, fast, and excellent tasting recipes. The sauces and marinades alone are well worth the cost of the book. Some recipes are quite mundane, while others offer new and unexpected (but yummy) combinations of things.

Summary: My Favorite Cookbook
Review: I love this cookbook because the recipes are easy, original, taste good and are flexible. When I have assorted odds and ends in my refrigerator, I can always find a recipe in this book which will make use of them. The writing style is entertaining and I have learned more about cooking from this book. I have a lot of cookbooks, but this is the first one I reach for when I am doing general cooking.
