The Bon Appetit Cookbook: More than 1,200 of the Magazine’s All-time, Best-loved Recipes

“There’s a new addition to the category of doorstop cookbooks — which includes the venerable “Joy of Cooking and the timeless The Gourmet Cookbook.

If I had to sum up the “Bon Appetit” approach, it’s this: simplify, multiply, and serve. Most of the recipes feed a gluttonous family of four well; many will serve twice that number. For a week while testing this cookbook, our refrigerator brimmed with leftovers, only a fraction of which could be dispatched the next day at lunchtime.”
