What a delightful gift for kids and their parents (or grandparents or aunts and uncles, etc. to share. The 1957 Betty Crocker Cook Book for Boys and Girls - yes, the same cook book that many Americans learned to cook with back in the late 50's and 60's -- is back. Wiley has reprinted this classic in all of its former glory so that new generations can have fun and learn in the kitchen with Betty Crocker.
Here's a nostalgic collection of simple to make recipes that will teach kids basic knowledge of cooking and food preparation. The cooking knowledge they will learn will get them through a lifetime of great meals in years to come. It's also a way for busy moms to get a bit of a break when it comes to preparing family breakfasts, lunches or dinners.
The book includes over 245 recipes, nostalgic vintage full color photographs and charming illustrations that show the simple techniques used to create the recipes. There's lots of other useful information for kids to learn like kitchen safety rules, measuring instructions, kitchen utensils, table setting, party ideas and more.
Chapters include: Extra Special: Cakes, Icings, Cookies, Candies, Drinks; Campfire Cooking: Eggs, Potatoes, Hot Breads, Main Dishes, S'Mores; Breakfast: Toast Spreads, Fruits, Cocoa, French Toast, Eggs, Pancakes, Cereals, Breads; Lunch or Supper: Table Setting, Main Dishes, Salads, Breads, Desserts, Cakes, Cookies; Dinner: Relishes, Main Dishes, Vegetables, Salads, Biscuits, Desserts, Cakes; Rules: Safety, Measuring Tools, How to Measure; Utensils; Cooking Terms; Kitchen Manners.
