What's the recipe today?

"Recipes" Woman's Organization Bethany Congregational Church, 1927; "What to Serve at Parties", 1920s; "New Perfection Cook Book Recipes", early 1900s.

From "The Dead Celebrity Cookbook".

Description: Cover, from a 1930s Campbell Soup Co. cookbook, showing an amusing image of “the Campbell’s boy” carrying a basket of tomatoes. | Couverture d’un livre de recette de Campbell’s des années 30, avec « le gamin Campbell’s » et son panier de tomates.

A quick layout for the GNOME Cookbook I 'Inkscaped' in 10 minutes.

 

I included a hackergotchi and an introductory text, and allowed space for icons (that's a veggie one I created in 10 seconds... we should start thinking about the icons!)

 

This recipe is very short -that's why the layout looks a bit empty, specially the sidebar- but most recipes are longer, I guess...

The In Bocca books are marvelous in many respects. Each is either bilingual (Italian and English) or trilingual (the same material in the regional dialect). All are produced distinctively, printed on a very rough oatmeal recycled paper and bound in corrugated cardboard. The covers are imaginatively screened prints, and the interior is nicely illustrated, as well, with the dialect versions rendered in what appears to be actual handwriting.

So many cookbooks! I actually put back another 10 books - for others to enjoy...

A few of our favorites from the cookbook collection. We love spicy food! The pages for Carne Adovada, Pork Chile Verde and Chicken Cream Cheese Rellenos with roasted red chile sauce are worn & well used.

Dated 1961. We have an Osterizer, but not one that's that old!

Stumbled upon a new source for cookbooks! It's Goodwillbooks.com and they have thousands of titles of books in numerous categories (of course I only browsed the cookbook section!). The books are super cheap - most of the titles I purchased were less than 50 cents each! I paid more for shipping ($2.50 for first book then a dollar for each additional book) All in all very affordable!

From the top: Old Time Brand Name Desserts - filled with totally awesome photos of vintage pamphlets, Southern Heritage Cakes cookbook (c.1983), Island Cooks, HomemadeGifts of Treats & Sweets, The LA Times California Cookbook (c.1983), Best of the Best Hawaii Recipes and The State Fair Blue Ribbon Cookbook (c.1976)

This cookbook is undated but is probably from the 1900s-1910s (ads in 1907-1914 mention this booklet, and nothing in the contents contradicts this early date). Lots of interesting recipes using Mapleine, from Seattle's Crescent Manufacturing Company. I will be doing a post about Mapleine on ResurrectedRecipes.com soon.

 

I should add that there were versions of Mapleine Dainties right up to the 1920s. The design of this one is clearly earlier, though. (There is a later edition with a blue cover and possibly 1920s-style graphics, for example.)

From The Household Searchlight Recipe Book, copyright 1940. Printed by The Household Magazine, Topeka, KS.

Distinctive and delicious, sure, but which is the Ultimate Underwood Spread: Deviled Ham, Chicken, or Liverwurst?
