Summary: No nutritional information!!
Comment: I really like this book, especially the sections on organizing and shopping. However no nutritional information is listed for the recipes. It may not matter to you but I like to watch my calorie and fat intake and I have family members that watch their sodium. This book is great for comfort food though and who really cares about the calorie count when you are missing your mother's cooking!

Summary: Good book for new commers to U.S. too.
Comment: This book helped me a lot during my first business trip to U.S. I rent an apartment, then I found the kitchen appliances and equipments did not resemble at all to the ones I used to in my home country.... Why was "F" written on the oven instead of "C"?
No Asian food is sold in that small town, and I had no idea about anything the grocery store sold, which looked like some kind of food from outer planet. I threw away the first dish I cooked without eating, although I was not a bad cook in Japan. Then I found this book and studied it in detail. I learned how to use what the Americans call "stove", and how to shop in a grocery store.
I had seen many business people from Asia get thin and nervous because they couldn't eat. I was able to stay healthy in the new environment by this book and of course I suceeded the assignment!

Summary: Absolutely indispensable for a first kitchen
Comment: This book does what most cookbooks don't: it assumes that you really know absolutely NOTHING about cooking. For those of us for which that is true, this book is a life-saver. It has recipes for the most basic things (how to hard-boil an egg, for example); it gives you a suggested grocery list for your first shopping trip to stock your new kitchen; it give invaluable advice about choosing fresh food and how to store things. As a recent college grad in my first apartment, I consult this book almost daily (I didn't know that fish, if it's fresh, should have NO smell, or that eggs that have gone bad will float). A perfect graduation gift (or just a gift for someone you sense is really suffering in the kitchen).
