Publisher's Note
For kids living on their own for the very first time, or kids on their own just for dinner, the kitchen looms at worst like a shark-infested lagoon, at best like a science lab they never took in school. There's food in there, but then what? It'll have to be cooked...or at least peeled. Probably both. "Clueless in the Kitchen": a Cookbook for Teens and Other Beginners, takes absolutely for granted that the kitchen is uncharted territory for most kids. In this funny and slightly off-the-wall book, Evelyn Raab, Today's Parent magazine's "Cooking with Kids" columnist (and the mother of two teens) leads culinary neophytes through the entire gamut of kitchen experience -- from cleaning a stove to outfitting a first kitchen (cheaply), from boiling an egg to planning an entire meal. Two hundred scrumptious and foolproof recipes are organized by course and main ingredient, from "Breakfast: A Cruel Joke" to "Snacks and Munchies", with one chapter devoted to the "Vehemently Vegetarian". Each recipe is coded to fit the young cook's requirements for vegetarian or cheap eats, couch potato, mom or family food, food to impress or munchies. Menu planners tailor the perfect meal to every guest, whether that guest is a shallow but fun boy/girlfriend or Aunt Gladys. Zany illustrations enlighten and entertain throughout. Incredibly comprehensive, never condescending and very funny, "Clueless in the Kitchen" offers a firm but gentle guide to that alien territory, and is sure to replace (most of the time) macaroni and cheese as every kid's mealtime solution.

Industry reviews
Gr 7 Up-Take a large measure of good recipes, toss with a healthy dose of humor, and you'll have this accessible cookbook. Newly independent cooks will get all the basics, from buying equipment and groceries, to food-preparation techniques, cooking meals, and defrosting the refrigerator. Recipes are grouped by food type such as "Breakfast-A Cruel Joke" and "Primarily Pasta." Icons further identify each recipe as "Cheap Eats," "Vegetarian Stuff," "Couch Potato Food," "Dinner for the Family," or "Cooking to Impress." There's something for every taste, from hamburgers and pizza to shrimp scampi and almond torte. Both English and metric measurements are given. A conversion chart, glossary, menu ideas, and a good index are included. Raab's informal and chatty style will appeal to teens, but the lack of nutritional information and the liberal use of butter will disappoint health-conscious readers. Joan Scobey's The Fannie Farmer Junior Cookbook (Little, Brown, 1993) has fewer recipes with less variety, but is somewhat easier to follow and aimed at a slightly younger audience. A welcome and useful addition for cooking collections.-Paula A. Kiely, Milwaukee Public Library, WI
