Mennonite community cookbook: favorite family recipes

"The Mennonite Community Cookbook rolls up nostalgia, simple cooking, and hearty dishes into one package that's sure to produce blue ribbons at the county fair. Old fashioned cooking and traditional values thread through this book of food history, frequent Pennsylvania Dutch favourites, and stories of beloved relationships. The brainchild of Dr. Mary Emma Showalter, this mother of all Mennonite cookbooks, brings a touch of Mennonite culture and hospitality to any home that relishes great cooking. Original directions like a dab of cinnamon or ten blubs of molasses have been standardised to help you get the same wonderful individuality and flavour. A classic collection of more than 1,100 recipes, this cookbook provides a roadmap for families wanting to cook from scratch."--Provided by publisher.;The story behind Mennonite community cookbook.
