Product Description

Product Description
First published in 1948, the Good Housekeeping Cookery Book is firmly established as the cook's bible, and has sold millions of copies in its various editions. Completely updated to reflect the tastes of 2004, it is a superb collection of more than 850 foolproof, step-by-step recipes collated and triple-tested by the renowned Good Housekeeping Institute. Whatever occasion you are cooking for, you will find the perfect recipe within these pages. Classic family favourites are represented, along with unusual or more exotic dishes for special celebrations. The recipes range from meat, poultry and healthy fish dishes to vegetarian fare and mouth-watering cakes and puddings. There are also recipes for jams, pickles and chutneys, soups and sauces. Every recipe includes preparation and cooking times, freezing notes and a calorie count. There is also up-to-date information on everything from how to store fresh herbs to identifying the new and unusual ingredients available today. Full-colour photographs are featured throughout and the more difficult cooking techniques are illustrated with step-by-step colour artworks. The Good Housekeeping Cookery Book is a truly comprehensive and indispensable compendium for today's cook.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything works!!, 28 Feb 2005
By G. Wood "georgelucy2" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
At last! Recipes that work! Everything I've tried so far from this book works so well. There's a great mix of everyday food and party food. AND they tell you all the things no-one ever told you - like how to make a white sauce from scratch! HIGHLY recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Complete Cook Book, 2 Aug 2005
This is an outstanding product. It contains almost every recipie that you'll ever need and much, much more. I saw an old 1980's copy of this book that a good friend of mine owned and decided to buy this from Amazon. I am very, very impressed and would commend this to any chef, cook or house wife/husband. Get a copy whilst you can!
