  Mennonite Community Cookbook Mary Emma Showalter  
   


$25.00

temporarily out of stock

[Mennonite Community Cookbook] Mary Emma Showalter has compiled favorite recipes from hundreds of Mennonite women noted for their excellent cooking. Tantalizing dishes brought to this country directly from old Dutch, German, Swiss, and Russian kitchens. Original directions like "a dab of cinnamon" or "ten blubs of molasses" have been standardized to help you get the same wonderful individuality and flavor. Showalter introduces each chapter with her own nostalgic recollection of cookery in grandma's day -- the pie shelf in the springhouse, outdoor bake ovens, the summer kitchen.

Beautifully illustrated with color photographs and drawings by Naomi Nissley.

494 pages. Spiral bound. Herald Press.
