Jessica's Biscuit® / ecookbooks.com - For 28 Years, America's Cookbook Store™... “20-75% off everyday on over 14,000 titles”
The more than 500 cherished recipes in these pages are mainstays of American home cooking, the recipes that have remained favorites year after year. For the smallest sampling: California dip; Buffalo chicken wings; vichyssoise; tuna-noodle casserole; Swiss steak; frosted meat loaf; tamale pie; corn dogs; lobster rolls; classic green bean bake; perfection salad; green goddess salad; frozen fruit salad; chiffon cake; brownies; chocolate chip cookies; chocolate decadence; and more.
Beyond this collection is Jean's exploration of the diversity of our nation's cuisine and our adoption of such foreign dishes as pizza, gazpacho, lasagne, moussaka, and tarte tatin. Her painstakingly researched text includes extensive headnotes, thumbnail profiles of important people and products (from Fannie Farmer to James Beard and from electric refrigerators to the microwave), and a timeline of major 20th-century food firsts.
In recording popular recipes that might have been lost, in setting them in richly detailed historical context, Jean Anderson has written her masterwork. The American Century Cookbook may well be the most important new cookbook of the decade; it is certainly the book America will love.
