Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisSince its original publication, Joy of Cooking has been the most authoritative cookbook in America the one upon which millions of cooks have confidently relied for more than sixty-five years. It's the book your grandmother and mother probably learned to cook from, the book you gave your sister when she got married. This, the first revision in more than twenty years, is better than ever. Since its original publication, Joy of Cooking has been the most authoritative cookbook in America the one upon which millions of cooks have confidently relied for more than sixty-five years. It's the book your grandmother and mother probably learned to cook from, the book you gave your sister when she got married. This, the first revision in more than twenty years, is better than ever. Here's why: -Every chapter has been rethought with an emphasis on freshness, convenience, and health. -All the recipes have been reconceived and tested with an eye to modern taste, and the cooking knowledge imparted with each subject enriched to the point where everyone from a beginning to an experienced cook will feel completely supported. -The new Joy continues the vision of American cooking that began with the first edition of Joy. It is still the book you can turn to for perfect Beef Wellington and Baked Macaroni and Cheese. It's also the book where you can now find Turkey on the Grill, Spicy Peanut Sesame Noodles, and vegetarian meals. -The new Joy provides more thorough descriptions of ingredients, from the familiar to the most exotic. For instance, almost all the varieties of apples grown domestically are described--the months they become available, how they taste, what they are best used for, and how long they keep. But for the first time Joy features a complete section on fresh and dried chili peppers: how to roast and grill them, how to store them, and how long they keep--with illustrations of each pepper. -An all-new "RULES" section in many chapters gives essential cooking basics at a glance: washing and storing salad greens, selecting a pasta and a matching sauce, determining when a piece of fish is cooked through, stuffing a chicken, and making a perfect souffle. New chapters reflect changing American tastes and lifestyles: -Separate new chapters on grains, beans, and pasta include recipes for grits, polenta, pilafs, risottos, vegetarian chills, bean casseroles, and make-ahead lasagnes. -New baking and dessert chapters promise to enhance Joy of Cooking's reputation as a bible for bakers. Quick and yeast bread recipes range from focaccia, pizza, and sourdoughs to muffins and coffee cakes. Separate chapters cover custards and puddings, pies and tarts, cookies, cakes, cobblers, and other American fruit desserts revived for this edition. Recipes include one-bowl cakes, gingerbread, angel and sponge cakes, meringues, pound cakes, fruitcakes, 6 different kinds of cheesecake--there's even an illustrated wedding cake recipe, which takes you through all the stages from building a stand, making and decorating the cake, to transporting it to the reception without a hitch. -Little Dishes showcases foods from around the world: hummus, baba ghanoush, bruschetta, tacos, empanadas, and fried wontons. -AII new drawings of techniques, ingredients, and equipment, integrated throughout an elegant new design, and over 300 more pages round out the new Joy. Among this book's other unique features: microwave instructions for preparing beans, grains, and vegetables; dozens of new recipes for people who are lactose intolerant and allergic to gluten; expanded ingredients chart now features calories, essential vitamins, and levels of fats and cholesterol. There are ideas for substitutions to lower fat in recipes and reduced-fat recipes in the baking sections. From cover to cover, Joy's chapters have been imbued with the knowledge and passion of America's greatest cooks and cooking teachers.

Recipe that my grandmother used to make!
I have been wanting this book for years but finally ordered it since the price was so good. I ordered this for a specific recipe that my grandmother used to make, Russian borscht. My grandmother now has Alzheimer’s so it means so much to me to have this recipe. I looked online but didn’t see any similar borscht recipes to what she made. This book is amazing it has a recipe for anything you could dream up as well as good old fashioned recipes.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Had to be this edition
My daughter just moved into her first house and asked if she could have my old cookbook that she has known her whole life. I did not want to part with it because Joy Of Cooking comes out with a new edition every few years. So I was thrilled when I found this one to replace mine.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Title is same as it has always been.
I have been using The Joy of Cooking for many years but did not have this edition. It is a good edition because it has a lot of ethnic recipes in it. I had been reading it at a friend's house and decided to order it. It is great.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A great cooking companion!
A cookbook our family has used for many years. We decided to get copies for our two boys, who also enjoy cooking and food. Covers so many different methods of cooking and preparation with recipes that our good in their own right, but also serve as a basis for variation and experimentation.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Large cookbook, very thick 1130 pages of goodness
Big thick book, biggest cook book I've ever seen. I kind of wish it was in a 3 ring binder like my BTR Homes & Gardens cookbook. I have that book, plus a Btty crcker cookbook; and neither of them have a simple recipe for Chocolate cake (yes, I found devils food in the bttr hms and gardens, but it is not chocolate cake. I am thrilled to have this cookbook at my fingertips. I found that many internet recipes are utter garbage, and I was tired of them failing for me.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
