Title: A disappointment fora fan of older editions...
Review: My mom bought me my first copy of this cookbook in 1988, when I first moved away from home. It was perfect, full of all of the best basic recipes and simple to make - perfect for a novice. I have loved it and used it as my go-to cookbook for 22 years..I noticed the new version had lots of newer, more modern takes on various dishes as well as nutritional info (very helpful!) - but alas, the recipes were overall a disappointment. Simple recipes were over-complicated, more challenging dishes used too many processed ingredients. I was underwhelmed. Fortunately, I still have my old copy. But I think they needed to do more careful recipe editing of this updated classic. I wouldn't have bought it had I known this. (note: this is for the NEW limited edition version of prize-winning recipes)..
