The Joy of Cooking Irma S. Rombauer, Marion Rombauer Becker, and Ethan Becker “Joy of Cooking” is in my cookbook selection because it is the Bible. I mean, if you cook anything, you should always have the “Joy of Cooking.” I’ve like always referred to this book. So, if I’m out of pancake mix or something, I actually have it dog-eared, you know the page to make it from scratch. So, it’s a good book to refer to when you know you have any questions in the kitchen. It’s laid out pretty well. It’s, I would say it’s simple. I’ve referred to it for everything, cookies, anything that I’d want to make. Maybe from scratch, but don’t want to make you know go get a book just for that particular thing. It even has, this is my, one of my favorite parts, which I’ve never used but it has a whole game section on how to like skin a squirrel and things like that which I love. I think that’s great. What I don’t like about it is that there are some recipes that you have to get used to the way that they’ve written it because they, it’s not like a regular maybe recipe book that we might be used to where you separated are the ingredients from the directions. A lot of times they’re, you might skip over actually directions because it’s part of the ingredient list. So, it’s just something that I would get, you now one has to get used to. I would say it would be great for any cook especially beginner cooks because it is real basic. I would give it five out of five for a real basic cookbook.
