Reviews
On Sep 9 2018, a reader said:
Let me start by saying that if the whole world knew about and cooked out of this book this would be a much happier planet. I know this book as far back as I can remember my mother has cooked recipes from this book and I mean everything from arroz con pollo to biscotti and honey taffy and sourdough bread and everything in between I also remember a peach brandy Bundt cake my mother used to make that takes 2 months to make and the end result is unreal, basically this is the best cookbook ever, period. Do yourself a favor and find this book if you are even a hobbyist when it comes to cooking this book will change your life. Since the 70s my mother has been using this legendary cookbook. Thank u Amy Vanderbilt for blessing the world with ur talent. Bon Appetit. Daniel Valentine Trujillo 2018
