Review for Cooking Class, 10th Anniversary Edition

Cooking Class, 10th Anniversary Edition by Deanna F. Cook, cooking, food, yummy, children's booksI received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

Give Mehsi a fun cooking book and she is all in for it! Though it does depend on the cooking/baking book. If it is just all text and not much fun I may not be that interested, but if it is something like this? Playful? Fun? With photographs? Tips? And more? Yes.

The book is split up in 7 chapters, the first being all about how to cook/how to prep and all the other basics. Not one I need as I have been cooking/baking for a while now, haha. Still I am always happy that books add it and that this one went full on for it. Some books just delve in a bit, but this one goes through all the basics. Plus, throughout the book you will also get some tips on how to do x or y, so if you miss something in this chapter, no worries it will probably come back in other chapters.

And from then on it is Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks, a special chapter on veggies, Dinner, and of course most important of all, dessert! YUM! Definitely the last chapter was the one I was looking forward to the most, haha. I just love a good sweet treat. But I have to say that the rest of the recipes were also fun and I just need to try several of them. Like I want to give those Breakfast Sundaes a try, they look like a treat! Plus, I want to try those French Toasts on a stick! Oh, and Lettuce Roll-ups, and Quiche Cupcakes, and and, well I guess you get the idea. This girl was all in for this book. So much delicious yums to try out. And I definitely love that each chapter is a different part of the day and that you can just scroll to the one you want to go for.

The recipes are split in three difficulty ratings, 1 spoon, 2 spoons, and 3 spoons. I have to say I had expected a bit more of that. I know that this is a book for kids, but most of the recipes are super simple. A lot of fun, but very simple. I have seen some kids books like this that go pretty difficult and I kinda missed that in this one.

The instructions to each recipe is very clear by way of text + photographs. There are also extra bits with tips for creative cooks (to change things up a bit and try new combos), plus also fun events you can try to do with recipes~ I really liked those extra bits!

And just like every cooking/baking book in existence, I will be avoiding the recipes with nuts/peanuts if it is the key-element, otherwise I will see if I can play around a bit with the recipe.

I like the extras at the end, the labels for the various things you can make + the recipe cards + games + more. I was already considering buying this book because of the fun recipes, but this really is an extra I cannot resist!

All in all, a really fun book with not too hard very yummy recipes~ I would recommend it!

Star rating, 4.5 stars
