The Apple Lover's Cookbook: Revised and Updated

I ordered this cookbook because I love watching Amy Traverso on the PBS television series Weekends with Yankee. The Apple Lover's cookbook has so much information about apples and Amy's recipes are amazing ... so simple and good! I treasure this cookbook as a great addition to my collection.

I had a copy from the local library but had to get one of my own. Fantastic reference book, has some of the old varieties (e,g, Jonathatn, McIntosh, Cortland, Winesap) as well as some of the new varieties (e.g. Cosmic Crisp, HoneyCrisp, Pink Lady). Not a complete reference; misses some older apples we grew at home (Paula Red, Yellow Transparent, Wealthy) and barely mentions Dutchess of Oldenberg (we called them Duchess). While I don't agree to all their division ranking (i.e. I'm a Jonathan fan for pie apple, it doesn't cook to mush as they imply it does) it is a great reference for picking and choosing the apples you'll find in the stores (but is should mention Kanzi; my personal replacement for Jonathan). rjs

Most recipes require huge amounts of butter!

Love this book! The best part of this book is all the information about so many different kinds of apples and what they are best used for. Many types of apples I had never heard of before. There is information on where you can get certain apples too. I actually sought out and purchased new types of apples to try with great results. If you like apples, this is the book for you.

This really is a great cookbook but it needs more pictures! Please! I would love to know what a French Apple Tart or an Apple-Cranberry Slab Pie looks like!

If you're curious about apples, this is the book for you. Tons of information about a myriad of apple types along with recipes. Great for those of you who like to learn about your food as well as how to cook it.

Awesome cookbook. Very nicely done with history, upgrades and pictures. I always "tag" great recipes so I can find them easily, with this book I tagged almost every page. Loved it so much I bought copies for my son and brother who both love to cook!

The Apple Lover's Cookbook is wonderful! It contains information on a huge variety of apples, plus many recipes for sweet and savory apple dishes.

Really lovely book. So many lovely simple recipes and pictures. Love it xxx
