I really like my Leeann Chin Chinese Cookbooks put out by Betty Crocker.
I'm getting the Mexican and Italian one, and already have International and
Indian.
A few years ago, I bought the freshly-printed replica of the 1955-ish book.
This was my mom's cooking bible when I was growing up. I've found a lot of
"Mom's" recipes that came straight from Betty.
Mom was on a first name basis with Betty. And Sarah. And Fanny.
