"Should be standard issue in every NZ kitchen"
5 stars"

We've been going through our ‘favourite family recipes’ recently as part of a family history project, and discovered that most of them originally came from an Edmonds Cookbook. The grandparents used the original deluxe 1955 edition, my parents used the revised 1980 edition and I use the 1998 version I was given when I went flatting. Now my daughter uses the junior version. Classic recipes, lots of favourites you'll recognise, foolproof recipes (except the pavlova is a bit tricky!) and should be standard in every NZ kitchen. Try the scones. :)

"A must have staple in the kitchen"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This particular purchase was a gift, so i don't know the changes from previous editions – however this is a fantastic staple cook book that should be in every-single-kitchen. Defiantly one of the two most used at home, and many recipes are very easy to adjust if you are looking for a slightly different flavour combination & p.s. best apple crumble is in here!!

"True classic!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I had one of my own, so I HAD to get one for my best friend who didn't own one. Definitely something missing from the kitchen if you don't own it. Highly reccommend.

"The Greatest Cook Book ever"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The Edmonds Cookery book would have to be the best cook book ever published. For such an old publication to be still relevant today is amazing. Should be in every kitchen in every house

"A must have for evry kitchen!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The Edmonds Cookbook has stood the test of time. From beginners to experienced cooks, this book is a wealth of recipes to suit every taste. Most recipes contain basic ingredients so great for those on a budget. Nourish your family (or just yourself) with delicious, nutritious meals, that are easy to prepare.

A must have for every person (or couple) setting up their first home.

"Classic Kiwi Cooking"
5 stars"

Kiwi essential cook book. I have always had one of these on hand and since the chocolate cake mix has glued two pages together I thought its finally time for an update. Great item for teens leaving home as yes, even they can use these recipes.
