I love this cookbook, it has simple tasty recipes that you can make from pantry stock. His recipe for biscuits is my classic to use recipe. It is simple and tosses together quickly, calls for ingredients I have on hand, and is delicious. I often make two batches becasue the kids gobble them up.
I often wonder why this book wasn't more popular.

Out of my many dozens of cookbooks, this one is my favorite. The recipes are simple and delcious. The writing is excellent and interesting. I have loved every recipe I have cooked in it and that is many. The scones are amazing when I use craisins instead of raisins and add some grated orange peel. The chocolate pudding in a mug is my "must have a sweet right now" fix. Best polenta, too! No pictures in it but you won't miss them.
