“I love this cookbook! Not only does it contain hundreds of mouthwatering recipes, but Hesser adds her own tidbits, historical insights, and often-humorous commentary on the changing tastes of American eaters. Fun enough to read on its own, heavy enough to become a cornerstone of your cookbook collection, The Essential New York Times Cookbook is a must-have!”—Beth, Third Street Books, McMinnville, OR
