Cookbook for college student
Sept. 2002
Can anyone recommend a good basic cookbook for a college student whose budget
will not allow much eating out? My son cooks a little, but his roommates not
at all. I read about one several years ago written by a college student for
college students but can't remember the name. He doesn't find much he wants
to make from sources like Fanny Farmer or Joy of Cooking. We plan to send
family favorite recipes with him also.

Regarding a good basic cookbook: Elaine Corn, Now You're Cooking
(published by Jay Harlow & Elaine Ratner, Berkeley parents of a teen)

My 14-year old likes Clueless in the
Kitchen, A Cookbook for Teens, by Evelyn Raab, in paperback. It has humor,
simple recipes and enough instructions for non-cooks, like how to cut up a
chicken. Lots of teen foods. I myself learned to cook from Sunset's Basics
for Good Cooking, which I still use. Good recipes plus all the basics.
