C. Moore: This is a cookbook I have used for many years. I am giving this one as a gift. Julia Childs is a great chef, and a great writer. This cookbook is organized so that there is a "master recipe" and a series of variations on the recipe. They are really well done and easy to follow. It is a great cookbook for inexperienced cooks and for very experienced cooks. I am (without trying to feed my ego) a good and experienced cook. It is useful and I rely on it regularly. I would recommend it for anyone.

book worm: This is an excellent book for people that enjoy cooking and good food. The recipes are easy to follow, and the book includes tips on basic recipes, how to modify them, how to use leftovers, as well as techniques for preparing raw ingredients such as meat and vegetables. The book was in excellent condition, with only a minor stain on its cover.

Dianna Hendrickson: If you can read, you really can cook, and with Julia Child's The Way to Cook, you will cook remarkably well. This book isn't just assembled recipes that have you doing the robot in your kitchen; no, this book is organized, not by recipes, but by techniques- and if you master basic cooking techniques, you will master cooking. This beautiful book offers culinary training that will serve you the rest of your life. I taught myself to cook with this wonderful book, and the skills I developed allowed me to reproduce beloved dishes. This is a valuable resource for anyone who loves to eat- the novice will soon be mastering techniques that will allow him or her to easily reproduce and even improve on beloved dishes. Believe it or not, it won't be long before you'll be able to reproduce dishes you encounter dining out. You'll not only enjoy cooking, you will grow in your appreciation of food.
This is my second copy of The Way to Cook; I needed to replace my original copy for my daughters. They don't have much interest in cooking right now and are content to perform basic maneuvers in the kitchen, but I don't worry. Someday when I'm not around to cook for them, they can take my...

Ellenb: Amazing cookbook. I got the for my grandaughter and it not only has great recipes, it also has so much information about how to make them turn out perfectly. We've made two recipes so far and they were delicious.

B. Marold: `The Way to Cook' was written by Julia Child and published by Knopf about 27 years after the first publication of `Mastering the Art of French Cooking' which established Child's reputation. So, it was published when Julia Child was a household name for over two decades. It was meant to be her most important culinary work. It has never replaced Child's first book in the hearts and minds of America's foodies, in spite of the fact that the book opens with a statement that the book means to address Americans' new health consciousness and their diminishing time available to cook.
This is still a very, very good book. Unlike the more famous `French Cooking', this book is much more concerned with teaching the art of cooking. In fact, Ms. Child originates an idea here that has reached its fullest fruition in the style of Rachael Ray's 30-Minute Meal rubric. Ray succeeds in putting out fast meals not by using a lot of processed supermarket preparations, but by using knowledge of cooking to make the best of basic ingredients. This is not to say Ms. Child is doing fast cooking. Many recipes are pretty involved. I can still remember doing Julia's take on a barbecue recipe which involved...
