"My very, very, very favourite cookbook. It covers the basics and was the best tool for me to self-teach and subsequently to teach my children how to cook."
"My second favourite cookbook. It offers a wide selection of basic, tasty recipes using readily available ingredients. Several of these recipes have become family standards."
"This Canadian cookbook author has created a wonderful series of cookbooks with recipes using basic, everyday ingredients. My favourite of the series, but be sure to check out all of the others."
