Amazon.com Review Betty Crocker's Cookbook is 50! In celebration, an updated and expanded ninth edition of this American classic reminds us once again of the value of good old-fashioned comfort food. The original Big Red Cookbook was immediately popular with a postwar audience seeking basic cooking advice and simple recipes that took advantage of several then-new convenience products. The ninth edition remains true to its roots, presenting exemplary instruction, savory mainstream dishes (that still make use of convenience foods and the products of parent company General Mills), and, most notably, standout chapters on baking and dessert specialties. New to this edition, which offers nearly 1,000 recipes, are grilling and vegetarian chapters; up-to-date nutrition information; additional color photos; and contemporary formulas for the likes of Brie with Caramelized Onions, Asiago Bread, and Tandoori Chicken with Chutney. Instruction was and is the book's strongest suit, and any cook--novice to professional--will benefit from its many how-to features. These include step-by-step directions with photos, tips for kitchen timesaving, and troubleshooting advice. The book also includes several comprehensive glossaries (those on cooking terms and ingredients are particularly good). Standouts among the vast recipe collection, more than 300 of which are designated fast or low fat, include old favorites such as Macaroni and Cheese, Old-Fashioned Baked Beans, and Lemon Chiffon Cake. A few newer ones, such as Sun-Dried Tomato and Olive Bread, also qualify. Published, as ever, in a loose-leaf binder, the book celebrates American culinary know-how, a broad-based tradition of good home cooking, exemplary baking, and the conviction that food and commerce can meld to help people cook easier and eat better. Happy birthday indeed! --Arthur Boehm

Betty Crocker cookbook November 10, 2008 Joan C. Lawrence I have an old Betty Crocker from the 50's and it's in pretty bad shape but I would be lost without it...that is why I wanted an up-to-date version. I just love the book and have already tried several recipes. I consider myself a pretty good cook who is always looking for new recipes as well as the tried and true ones.
BETTY CROCKER COOKBOOK November 3, 2008 Kathleen Hurst (Swedesboro, NJ United States) GREAT RECIPIES. ONLY DRAWBACK IS THE PLASTIC RING BINDING ON THE SIDE. THE FIRST BOOK ARRIVED DAMAGED. AMAZON REPLACED IT IMMEDIATELY. THE SECOND ONE CAME UNDAMAGED, BUT I DON'T LIKE THE PLASTIC RING BINDING.
