Betty Crocker Lost Recipes: Beloved Vintage Recipes for Today's Kitchen

Description:

About this item:

A captivating collection that celebrates the wonderful recipes from the Betty Crocker archives in a package that appeals to the modern cook


Betty Crocker Lost Recipes is the ultimate treasure for the most devoted Betty Crocker fans, as well as cooks who are interested in recipes with a retro/nostalgic twist. Eighty percent of the book includes tried-and-true recipes that simply aren’t in today’s cooking repertoire—mainly from-scratch recipes that are hard to find. Twenty percent is a fun look back at some of the cooking customs of the past that may not be worth repeating, but are worth remembering. Features include ideas like “How to Throw a Hawaiian Tiki Party,” and the robust introductory pages contain interesting stories, anecdotes, and artwork from Betty Crocker’s history. Recipes are carefully curated to ensure that they are still relevant, achievable, and made with available ingredients—think Beef Stroganoff, Chicken à la King, Waldorf Salad, and Chiffon Cake. These lost recipes are ready to grace the tables of a whole new generation of cooks.

I am happy with this cookbook. It has good photos and tasty, easy, recipes. I could live without the rabbit recipe but, overall, it was a good purchase.

Mr. Hollis has created a good cookbook and he has made the majority if not all of these recipes and tried them on multiple social media sites. Good job Mr. Hollis.

I HAVE BEEN ORDERING SPECIFIC COOKBOOKS FOR RECEIPES I'LL USE THIS YEARS GARDEN OF ZUCCHINI, TOMATOES, CUCUMBERS AND SUCH. I HAVE SENT THEM ALL BACK DUE TO SUCH DISAPPOINTMENT. THIS IS MY BEST RECENT COOKBOOK. I ORDERED 2 MORE FOR GIFTS IMMEDIATELY. THE RECEIPES ARE WONDERFUL. THE PICTURES MAKE YOU WANT TO COOK THEM ALL. THE BOOK ITSELF IS WELL MADE AND NOT A FLIMSY SOON TO BE TRASHED BOOK. THANK YOU FOR THIS BOOK. IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

Okay, I am impressed. I bought this book as a gift for a family member who LOVES cook books and now I am making another order for a copy of it for myself. It's such a clever, kitschy book. Sure, the recipes can be found just about anywhere and there aren't really as many as you'd expect there to be in a Betty Crocker book, but the rest of what the book has to offer is what makes it worthwhile. The housewife tips are fantastic, the old style pages really make it feel like older recipes, and the notes before each recipe, along with their modern updates, are fun to have.It's more coffee table book than cookbook, but that's perfect for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Very Lost

A. · October 21, 2017

I pre-ordered this book several months ago thinking it would truly be a lost collection of Betty Crocker recipes compiled into one book.Unfortunately, that is not the case.Some of the recipes are not even vintage and the ones that are have already been published in other Betty Crocker books over the years, mainly those in the Desserts chapter—including:Starlight Yellow CakeVelvet Crumb CakeGingerbreadJelly RollLemon Chiffon CakeCream PuffsMolasses CrinklesHermitsBanana Cream PieIf you have any of the above recipes, you'll probably want to skip buying this book. It really is more of a retrospective look back at Betty Crocker with previously published recipes thrown in. Why call the book Lost Recipes if the recipes in it are not lost?Other things that irked me when I flipped through the book:The Appetizers & Snacks chapter features one cocktail recipe (Manhattan Cocktails), but no others—except for a few non-alcoholic beverages (mostly Punches).Chapter 3 is called Breads and Coffee Cakes, yet only one coffee cake—Cherry Swirl Coffee Cake—is included in the chapter (and it calls for Bisquick and canned cherry pie filling). The remaining recipes in the chapter fall under the Quick Bread or Yeast Bread category. No Streusel, Crumb, or Sour Cream coffee cakes are included in the chapter.Maybe I took the title a little too seriously, but it definitely wasn't what I expected. I did find two recipes in the Main Dishes chapter (Stuffed Peppers, Meat Loaf) that I'd probably try.If you're on the fence about whether you should buy this book or not, my advice would be to preview it before you do.
