The Better Homes and Garden Step by Step Cookbook Better Homes and Gardens “I bought the “Better Homes and Gardens, Complete Step-by-Step Cookbook” sometimes in the 1980s. So, it’s not a real new, current groovy book. I got it because I needed to figure out how to cook Thanksgiving dinner. And as a bachelor back then, although I could cook breakfast, cooking Thanksgiving dinner seemed like a real challenge. I needed some really basic, clear help. The book is organized probably like a lot of cookbooks, except not that I’ve read too many cookbooks. The front part is categories of meals that you can cook. So deserts and baking, you know fish and vegetables, and on and on like that. The back is a really good index, so you can find any sort of specialty knowledge. But the really great thing about the book is that it assumes you don’t know anything about cooking. So, when it’s leading you through how to cook a turkey, it’s showing each step with a photo of what they’re talking about. So, I would recommend it to anybody who has little to no cooking experience and can follow some, the simplest directions. And that really if you just follow the very simple directions you can’t go wrong. I hate to be an easy grader, but I’m going to give this five stars. For what I wanted, it was perfect, simple, clear, hard to mess up.”
