Old Time Farmhouse Cooking. Rural American Recipes and Farm Lore The recipes included in this book were collected from a wide variety of American agricultural journals published between the 1880s and the 1950s. In an attempt to preserve the folklore of hand me down cooking, you will find that all of the recipes are written in their original form. Because old time farm wives were skilled cooks and didn't need to measure, the directions are vague and can be difficult to interpret by today's cooks. That's why you'll find an quot;author's notequot; following most of the recipes.
Whether you're a born farmer or a country minded city person, I hope you will enjoy these creative rural American dishes, with an added dash of popular culture, from a time when the food was wholesome and life was full of fresh air and sunshine.
