Mennonite Community Cookbook (Anniversary)

Mennonite Community Cookbook by Dr. Mary Emma Showalter is nostalgia, simple cooking, and hearty dishes sure to produce blue ribbons at the county fair. Old fashioned cooking and traditional Mennonite values thread through this book of food history, frequent Pennsylvania Dutch favorites, and stories of beloved relationships. The brainchild of Dr. Mary Emma Showalter, this “mother of all Mennonite cookbooks,” brings a touch of Mennonite culture and hospitality to any home that relishes great cooking.

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. A classic collection of more than 1100 recipes (now a collector’s item in older versions), provide a roadmap for families wanting to cook from scratch.
