Item Description...

Overview
Filled with practical tips, useful cooking hints, and lavish photography, a facsimile edition of the classic cookbook, first published in 1950, presents a collection of recipes that range from pigs in blankets and Emergency Steaks, to Chicken Tomato Aspic and Home Front Macaroni. 50,000 first printing.

Publishers Description
It's the book that started it all, the well-loved edition that first bought Betty Crocker cookbooks into American homes and hearts. Published in 1950, this ground-breaking title made cooking easy, it made cooking appealing, and best of all, it made cooking fun. Packed full of practical tips, useful hints, and lavish color photography, this was the book that shaped cooking for generations, the book that people remember. Every recipe you -- or your mother -- ever wanted is here, from pigs in blankets, to Emergency Steak to Chicken Tomato Aspic. Enjoy the clever ideas throughout -- twelve months of birthday cake ideas, showing how to decorate a cake to match each month's gem stone, pointers to make setting up a kitchen easy, or hints to make housework more pleasant. Feel a part of history when making Home Front Macaroni, developed during WW II rationing to stretch meat. Get into the spirit of fun with a Betty Crocker "Cookie Shine" or cookie baking party. People who grew up with this book will want it for the memories; those who are new to the book will want it for its charm and its intelligent approach to cooking. It's a perfect keepsake and a great gift.

Betty Crocker's Picture Cookbook  Jun 16, 2008
This cookbook has all the things I remembered about my mother & grandmother's cookbooks and more! It's the most comprehensive & complete cookbook for the basics and for fancy-schmancy stuff!
 
Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook  Jun 16, 2008

It's an all-encompassing cookbook  May 9, 2008
In my 38 years of marriage, I have completely worn out 2 Betty Crocker
picture cookbooks. So I was thrilled to find that this site.com carried them. It turns out the one I ordered is an even older copy, but it seems
to have all the info I need, and my old favorite recipes. I'm an old-
fashioned cook, so I need a cookbook that does not use instant ingredients. It also has basic info for every area of cooking and baking,
which is why I turn to it regularly for help. This was my first this site.com purchase. It will not be my last. from S.D.
 
Terrific Repro!  Apr 7, 2008
My favorite cookbook! My grandmother gave me the pick of all her cookbooks when I had successfully baked a cake from scratch at 9 years old (failed twice before!) I picked it for the pictures so I'd know what it should look like! I learned all kinds of preparation methods with the easy to follow directions and pictures including baking bread when I was 10 yrs old!

All the same pix and recipes I remember in a format that lies flat and each category is tabbed for easy reference. I ordered one for my daughter and my daugther-in-law as well as myself! (My old 1950 copy is very worn but I was still referring to it periodically)
