This is one of my favorite cookbooks. Marcia Adams had a knack of finding the usual and making the dish special. Not one recipe has been a bust for me.
No shortcuts here. If you are looking for how to cook the basics from scratch, check here first. This book provides midwestern recipes from Amish and Mennonite kitchens. It is as much a history book as it is a recipe book. It depicts regional Indiana cuisine - season by season.
Beautiful to look thru as well as educational. My favorites include Asparagus Soup(page 15) and Pumpernickel Croutons!
Nearly 200 hearty recipes from Amish and Mennonite kitchens. Companion to the 13-part PBS series.
