The Complete Cooking for Two Cookbook, 10th Anniversary Gift Edition: 700+ Recipes for Everything You'll Ever Want to Make

This is, by far, the best cookbook I have ever read! And I’m in my 60s! I bought the paperback, which is large and heavy and will be easy to use. It has appealing dishes from classics to the types of dishes we get in restaurants. And beautiful pictures! The Test Kitchen authors made the recipes as simple and concise as possible to prepare. Since we have to eat and I have to cook to feed my husband and myself most every day, this cookbook helps me look forward to being inspired and “changing it up” for years to come!

This cookbook is indeed the gold standard for "cooking for two." It is comprehensive and takes nothing for granted--it explains the simplest processes and recipes, while adding new twists. I also like that it includes many global recipes. My new favorite cookbook.

This cookbook has completely changed the way I cook! Not only is it filled with delectable recipes, it also has so many tips and helpful information about foods, preparing them, and cooking them. Each recipe begins with a small paragraph about the recipe and any substitutios that can be made, such as different types of hot peppers that can be used alternatively. There are also notes on any special prep technique required. Alternative variations are also included for some of the recipes. One of my favorites is a variation of another recipe that contains something I don't eat. I had been cooking the same tired old recipes I'd been making since I was 12, then I got sick of leftovers so I bought this book. I wish I had found it years ago, cutting my recipes down when it was just me & my son was such a hassle. Now we have all types of exotic food, Thai, Indian and Italian dishes I had never had before and they are all big hits in my home! Thank you America's Test Kitchen for the best cookbook I've ever owned! You will not be disappointed if you buy this amazing cookbook!

This would be the perfect cookbook except for the fact that not everyone has a microwave. My kitchen is small and I have choices to make. Microwave oven was the first thing jettisoned. When prepping they needed to give a non-microwave option. Otherwise this book replaces a lot of books. It has a recipe for every occasion. Be aware, the recipes are not heart healthy or calorie light.

This book is absolutely the best written cookbook of all time. I have loads of.cookbooks subscriptions galore...this beats them all. Its just me and my husband so having to relearn to cook for just us is a daily struggle. This book doesnt just give recipes it teaches you how to change your shopping how to buy things to use in multiple recipes. It absolutely has amazing recipes to. This is honestly the first time I have written just a review for a cookbook. Most books have a few things you like or would make. This book is way different. Its fun its well written and delicious is an understatement!

My daughter’s boyfriend loves to cook, and he loves the recipes in this book! Easy to do, yet come out delicious!

Amazing!!! I love how this cookbook for for 2 people! As almost an empty nester with a husband who travels- sometimes I do not want to cook a meal for 4! I love the pictures. I do wish every recipe had a picture, but understand that would be impossible. I also love the first section with their tips. Super great!

Love this cookbook for 2. All family have grown and moved out so this cookbook for 2 is wonderful. The recipe book has pictures and instruction how to prepare certain foods, it also gives substitutions for missing ingredients and/or substitutes for items you don't like. I bought the one with spring binding to help keep the page open while following the recipe,

Worked well for my wife and I.

Coveting the American to English alternative works out fine, used a few recipes and made some really tasty meals. Like to portioning for two. Less waste.

This range of recipe books by America’s Test Kitchen never fail. A mix of tried and tested recipes backed by scientific testing gives stunning results every time. If you can read these, you are an amazing cook.

Great!

What else needs to be said - I have most of their cookbooks (lots!) and I love every one of them. This one does not disappoint.
