Having bought this book years ago I found this an excellent book to work through. I tried the xmas cake recipe for the first time last xmas and it turned out perfect. All the instructions are clear, and they do not go wrong. So for perfect cooking, give this a go, I promise you will not regret it.
Thanks to Good Housekeeping, my cooking has improved tremendously, it turns out perfect every time.

This is the best cookbook I've ever had. I can't say bought as it was delivered to my house, addressed to an ex-tenant.
I've had this book 15 years and I still use it regularly. Almost everything in the book is easy to make with ingredients that are easily available from most supermarkets around the world. Instructions are straightforward with colour pictures along the way in case you're not sure. The colour index at the front of the book is a brilliant way for getting ideas for the next meal and I wish more cookbooks had this. Oh, and the paper is slightly waxed so you can wipe spills off it. Very important.
If you had to own 1 western style cookbook, it should be this one.

I lost my previous copy of this book and was rather lost without using it. Brought it for a great price and it turned up in good order, although it did take over a week to get to me. I would definitely buy from this seller again.

This is a great book. Good easy to follow instruction with excellent picture support. I particularly like the index of coloured pictures which is super for planning a menu.

A kitchen reference.
This is an easy to follow and well laid out book with every recipe you'd need to be a fair to good cook. If I had to pare down to a dozen cook books this would be one of them.
