Review: you CAN teach an old cook new tricks! - I first saw one of the recipes in this treasure trove in my local newspaper; i made it (lemon marzipan cake) and was astounded at its perfection. All because of a little trick the author gives you for perfectly buttering a bundt pan. Since then, I've purchased the book, found the 'to die for' calamari recipe and even followed Linda's instructions for preparing a holiday turkey a new way--though I've baked at least 50 turkeys over the years! This book has already joined my 'top five' cookbook ranks!
Review: Author’s Culinary Ideas - This kindlebook Cooking School Secrets for Real World Cooks by Linda Carucci includes an introduction on some of the varied circumstances that shaped why the Cooking School Secrets for Real World Cooks was written (for instance the author explains that the students asked her about a kitchen go to guide). The author explains that the recipes are divided into five sections, a quote by James Beard, the author discusses their views on organic and conventional produce, the author’s writings on menu planning and creative cooking, and more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the best mac & cheese in the universe!
*by A***N on July 15, 2009*

My sister checked this book out from the library so many times, our mom decided to buy it for her and got me a copy too. Great book for learning all kinds of cooking tips. You feel like Linda is in the kitchen with you. The recipe for mac & cheese is the best I have ever tasted! I have made it for lots of friends, who have swooned over it so then this book made a perfect gift for them! Have purchased several copies, all received with happiness from my friends.
