With the huge selection of cookbooks you need a road map to find the best one.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • cookbook
  • ingredients
  • patience
  1. Step 1

    The 3 best cookbooks that I would recomment to beginners is: "Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook". Their recipes have been tested to reassure that the directions are clear.

  2. Step 2

    There are a lot of good recipes showing meat roasting and has meat charts which show where on the animal the meat comes from. There is also a large list of substitutions and a list of measuring equivalencies. No more wondering how many cups there are in a quart.


    .

  3. Step 3

    For second choice I'd choose "Betty Crocker's Picture Cookbook" It has lots of good, kitchen-tested recipes many with pictures, meat roasting charts, meat maps to show where the cuts of meat come from on the animal. An older version of the cookbook, which this book is based on has many old fashioned recipes in it.

  4. Step 4

    I also love "The Best of The Best" and "More-by the Best of Best" series. It has many delicious recipes, that are easy to make, and have very clear instructions.

  5. Step 5

    Of course, there are many ethnic cooking books you can buy if you want to try out some new tastes or throw a special ocassion party. Have fun with your cooking and experiement a little and enjoy your results!
