Fun With Cooking, Cookbook of the Day |
|
Filed under: Books, Retro cookery, Cookbook of the Day  I picked this cookbook up at a thrift store when I was around nine years old. I had always loved things from other eras and when you coupled that with my desire to help my mom in the kitchen, I knew that this book had to be mine. Printed in 1947, Fun With Cooking by Mae Blacker Freeman, is full of kid-friendly, appealingly vintage-y recipes.
I made the Baking Powder Biscuits (page 36) and Butterscotch Squares (page 56) whenever my parents would give me kitchen access. I remember one day in particular when my mom let me make the Tuna Casserole on page 28. I was so excited, especially since it is one of those recipes that calls for crushed potato chips on top. This is a great book if you've got a kid around who wants to help in the kitchen and likes to know how things were done before they were born. Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
