Amazon.com Review:
Mark Bittman, award-winning author of such fundamental books as Fish and Leafy Greens and food columnist for the New York Times ("The Minimalist"), has turned in what has to be the weightiest tome of the year. There are more than 900 pages in this sucker--over 1,500 recipes! This isn't just the big top of cookbooks: it's the entire three-ring circus. This isn't just how to cook everything: it's how to cook everything you have ever wanted to have in your mouth. And then some.
Bittman starts with Roasted Buttered Nuts and Real Buttered Popcorn, and moves right along, section by section, from the likes of Black Bean Soup (eight different ways), to Beet and Fennel Salad, to Mussels (Portuguese-style over Pasta), to Cream Scones--and he hasn't even reached seafood, poultry, meat, or vegetables yet, let alone desserts. There are 23 sections in this cookbook (!) that reflect directly on the how-to of cooking, be that equipment, technique, or recipe.
Every inch of the way the reader finds Bittman's calm, helpful, encouraging voice. "Anyone can cook," he says at the beginning, "and most everyone should." More than a few college kids are going to head off to their first apartments with Bittman's book under arm. More than a few marriages will benefit with this book on the shelf. And anyone who loves cooking and the sound of a great food voice is going to enjoy letting this book fall open where it may. No matter what the page, it's bound to be a tasty and rewarding experience. --Schuyler Ingle

Rating:
- The Minimalist writes a minimalist cookbook.
This is an excellent cookbook for a starting cook, and it is the first one I turn to when I have a pile of one type of vegetable. The recipes are very easy to follow, and it has clear and useful techniques.
That being said, quite a few recipes (especially baking) are very bland. Oatmeal cookies turn out with excellent color and texture, but almost no taste. I've had this experience multiple times for this cookbook, and neither my wife or I have any desire to bake from it again.
Rating:
- It self-destructs
A great cookbook for today. However, I am now buying my 3rd copy because the binding keeps falling apart.
Just a disgusting practice. Shame on them.
Rating:
- Best. Cooking book. Ever.
I've got a lot of cooking books. I like to cook, but I'm not terribly good at it, having only started cooking (and baking) in the last few years.
This book is by far the best cooking book I've ever owned - can you imagine, reading a book on cooking this big from cover to cover? I did, and enjoyed every minute of it. And went back and read it again.
Does it really cover everything? No, not really. But it does cover *almost* everything that I'm interested in cooking, ... Read More

- My go-to cookbook
This book is my standard, go-to cookbook. It is extremely comprehensive and easy to follow. I gave away my copy of Joy of Cooking because I realized How to Cook Everything is the only basic cookbook I needed.
Rating:
- useful
This is the cookbook that gets used the most in my kitchen. The recipes are straightforward and easy to follow. I really appreciate the informative discussions about various ingredients and the best ways to cook them (like in the Joy of Cooking).
