A wonderful collection of tried and true recipes! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

After reading the first cookbook from La Jolla Country Day School (La Jolla Cooks), I was really glad to find out that they had just published a second cookbook. This book contains wonderful family recipes which have been passed down for generations, as well as international and gourmet recipes. I've tried many of the recipes in the new cookbook and they are delicious and easy to follow. There is also nutritional information for all the recipes. When I saw that Jeanne Jones had written the introduction, I knew that the book would be fabulous...and it is!

The cookbook follows the paradigms of the current age by presenting healthy food combining ingredients of many cultures. It is based on California cuisine.

The cookbook is illustrated throughout with line drawings made especially for the book. The drawings bring the recipe pages to life and contribute to the book's warmth.

Hidden treasure 4 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I found this book at a thriftstore. And the first recipe I tried, Poet Shelley's Chicken Soup, was so delicious. The first soup recipe that my husband actually liked and met his approval. A delightful, delicious find.

Some good oldies and some nice newies too 4 out of 5 stars.

This is a nice little cookbook. It has a back section of old recipes handed down through generations and the rest of the book consists of new recipes and updated versions of things you already like. There are healthier ways to cook a good variety of things from your Jewish cookbooks here with little snippets of background on the lineage of the recipe. The layout is pretty good and the colors are bright and cheerful. The way the spine is made the book lies open flat for ease of use while cooking. Some of the recipe instructions are a little harder than beginner but they are almost all easy to understand. I had trouble with the knish instructions on folding, but I never made a knish before.
