Editorial Review:

Product Description:
A culinary journal and recipe cookbook of America's regional foods. County and state fair food, food festivals, and regional fare from Hoppin John to Friday night fish fries. Over 600 recipes.

Amazon.com Review:
Sheila Lukins's USA Cookbook celebrates American cooking as seen through the enthusiastic eyes of one of the nation's most popular cooks and successful cookbook authors. The 600-plus recipes in this hefty book include exuberant versions of American classics like tomato soup and chocolate pudding, and updated takes on classics, inspired by dishes Lukins sampled at food festivals, restaurants, and in homes she visited all over the country. Lukins also shares recipes gathered from eateries whose specialties are the gold standard, including Sonny Bryan's Onion Rings from Kansas City, Missouri, Goode's BBQ Mop from Houston, and Blue Wally Pancakes from Al's Breakfast in Minneapolis, to name a few. Shaker Cranberry Brisket, Chili Chicken Salad, and Low Country Bread Pudding are more examples of Lukins in top form, adding her own creative yet comfortable and crowd-pleasing twists to classic regional dishes.

Use this book when cooking for company and to add a lift to family meals. Without leaving you buried in the kitchen, whatever you make will add a soupcon of sophistication--and gain compliments for the cook.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Cookbook Review
First saw this book in German. After lefting thru knew I had to have it. Thought I bought a paperback but got a Hard copy, Don't tell anyone. Great reading and good coverage of the Good Ole "USA">>



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - My favorite cookbook
Being Hungarian with my mother living in the states, I was always curious what geniune American food is like. This was the fist cookbook I got, and it is still my absolute favorite. Hunderds of recipies for every meal and occasion, with nice pieces of advice, stories, little trivias, and even beer and wine selection.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I love it
"USA" is a great cook book. It's organized well into different sections and the aray of recipes is amazing. There are so many recipes from different regions of the country that you'll never run out of ideas.A great book on Americana.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Another Lukin's Classic
Whether throwing an elegant dinner party, a backyard barbeque, or just making dinner for my family, if I want good, simple american food, I turn to this cookbook. The variety of recipes is astounding, and there is something for every palate and every event here. My personal favorites have to be the Pacific Northwest Light Mussels, which I have served twice as an appetizer to rave reviews at dinner parties (and have been able to scale down the recipe for one when I wanted to make dinner for myself), and the seared salmon recipe, which was delicious and incredibly easy. We also enjoyed the Berry Berry Cobbler at two birthday dinners this summer - a great substitue for people who don't like cake! (only in my family . . . ) I think that this cookbook would make a great addition to any cookbook collection.
