 Maybe why scratch cooking got lost October 5, 2008
My mom cooked from scratch and passed away before most of her recipes were known. I couldn't wait to get this book to get more down home recipes. I wasn't thrilled with the presentation but the proof as they say is in the pudding. Note, that this is not a book for a novice. One recipe says to make the cookie any size and cook for 10-15 mins. In cooking, size does matter. Next recipe says cook chicken until done. Doesn't say how to test for doneness. It says use chili sauce with no recipe for making it. Isn't that why you bought the book for the "cook" to tell you times and full recipes. Although it's a lovely tribute to his mother and is a nice momento for his family, people shouldn't be fooled, BBQ sauce takes more than 15 mins to simmer. The food is good but there are other books where the food taste great. Needless to say I don't use it anymore.

I love this book! I've tried just about everything in that book. It's a wonderful book!
 THE LOST ART OF SCRATCH OF COOKING May 22, 2008
THIS BOOK WAS SO DISAPPOINTING. THE REVIEWS INDICATED A CHARMING WAY TO SEE HOW TO COOK IN A WONDERFUL OLD ART OF COOKING. HAD I SAW THIS AT A CHURCH BAZZAR I WOULD HAVE PAID FAR LESS AND GIVEN IT TO A CHILD TO LEARN THE BASIS OF COOKING. IN TODAYS MARKET FOR THE PRICE PAID, IT SHOULD HAVE HAD MORE DETAILS ON THE FAMILY TRADITIONS, PHOTOS AND SOME ZIP THAT MADE YOU EAGER TO COOK SOMETHING INCLUDED IN THE BOOK.
I AM A COLLECTOR OF COOKBOOKS, PERHAPS NOW IN EXCESS OF 200+ AND WOULD RATE THIS BOOK AS A MINUS 1. I DID APPRECIATE THE BIBLICAL VERUS IN THE BOOK.
The Lost Ark Of Scratch Cooking December 25, 2007
The Title said it right. Scratch cooking is becoming a lost ark. There are so many ways that are quick, easy, or instant, but not alway the best. To me, food taste better when it made from scratch, even if it take more time and effort to prepare the meal. Compare this book from others that are quick and easy and you will see, nothing beat cooking from scratch.

This is an excellent resource for the novice.
I do not have a lot of time to read a lot of recipes just to get a good soul meal but this book is truly God sent.
If you need a meal without all of the fuss this book is for you.
