The Doubleday CookbookVolume One & Two by Jean Anderson 1975 Doubleday and Company Hardcover Set

Unlock the secrets of timeless cooking with this comprehensive 2-volume set, The Doubleday Cookbook by Jean Anderson and Elaine Hanna.

Complete Culinary Mastery in Two Volumes

Published in 1975, The Doubleday Cookbook Volumes One & Two by Jean Anderson and Elaine Hanna are a culinary classic that belongs in every kitchen. This hardcover set is a treasure trove packed with delicious recipes, practical cooking tips, and nutritional advice. From mouthwatering appetizers to delightful desserts, these cookbooks cover everything you need to know to become a confident home chef.

Volume 1 focuses on appetizers, soups, meats, poultry, and seafood, offering easy-to-follow recipes that bring the fundamentals of cooking to life.

Volume 2 shifts to the perfect sides, salads, breakfast dishes, and desserts. Alongside these recipes, the books provide in-depth sections on canning, preserving, and meal planning, plus nutritional information to help you eat well and stay healthy.

The cookbooks also include stunning photographs, charts, and illustrations to guide you through every step. The “Fundamentals of Cooking” and “Eat Well, Keep Well” sections offer valuable insights into cooking techniques, food groups, calories, and meal planning—making this set much more than just a collection of recipes.

Condition Note:
