A propos de cet article

Octavo, illustrated blue plaid boards (hardcover), 884 pp. Near Fine in a Near Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: The present volume of The Joy of Cooking is a far cry from the original small collection of recipes that Irma S. Rombauer prepared for her children many years ago. Even the first edition published by The Bobbs-Merrill Company more than a decade ago is hardly to be compared to the mammoth, up-to-the-minute book here presented. For Mrs. Rombauer has never stopped collecting recipes or working to perfect her own favorite dishes. Through the years enthusiastic friends of her book have sent her countless more. Each she put to her own three rigid tests -- a recipe must be practical; it must be easy to follow; above all, the finished product must be good to eat. Most cookbooks are as soulless as an empty cupboard. This one is fun to read as well as a joy to follow. There are bits about the history of a dish, suggestions on how to vary a basic recipe, delightful touches of humor as the author states her personal evaluation and preferences the way she would in a conversation. While she by no means neglects "company food," Mrs. Rombauer's emphasis has always been on attractive everyday meals. In 1942 a new, revised and greatly expanded edition brought the number of fans for The Joy of Cooking into the hundreds of thousands. Confronted with shortages and rationing, women (both experienced and inexperienced cooks) found the volume indescribably helpful in making meals that were both nutritious and palatable with available ingredients. And from every war front, even from prison camps, came messages of thanks from a vast new audience -- men as well as women -- who had discovered Mrs. Rombauer's book. Here is the answer to prayer of everyone who likes to cook, who has to cook, who has cooked for years, or who is about to cook her first meal. Anyone who can read can be an excellent cook with this most complete practical guide. Cooking & Entertaining, Cookbooks, Americana nslic.…
