These recipes are gleaned from the recipes I grew up with in rural Pennsylvania and the good country cooking of two of the best German grandma's in my neck of the woods - at least I think so!! And so did a lot of the neighbors of these two women. Raised on farms in the early 1900s these women learned to cook on wood burning stoves and fed farm hands as well as growing families during the Depression and World War II. The food was sometimes plain but always hearty. (#D001) |

Don't worry, the booklet will explain what a rivel is and what you are
supposed to do with all the ingredients. But the recipes I was handed down looked
just like what you see here! You learned how to make most of the recipes by watching
Grandma make 'em a couple of hundred times! But you won't have to - I'll provide all the explanations and the detailed instructions as you go. By the way this particular recipe makes a cake-like pie that goes great with a big, hot cup of black coffee!! As kids, us grandkids loved it with a big glass of cold milk - the kind you had to shake the cream down into before you poured it from the bottle - it came straight from the cow! |
