My new record for book to table! I received Heidi Swanson's new cookbook yesterday and I immediately made her baked oatmeal the next morning. What a delightful way to begin my day!
I enjoy oatmeal but this is a novel (and absolutely delicious) way to prepare oats like I never imagined before. Enriched with milk, maple syrup, and eggs, this golden-top breakfast casserole is studded with warm bananas, juicy sour cherries, and toasted almonds. This is a perfect addition to brunch. Not only is it beautiful, it requires only the bare minimal work for the cook. Just layer the ingredients together in a baking dish and let it bake away.
Recipe adapted from Heidi Swanson's Super Natural Everyday. Her recipe is featured at Lottie + Doof. Read more at Dessert By Candy.

From Mark Bittman's, How to Cook Everything, page 134. Wish I had some anchovies to add some body and pull it all together, but with a bottle of wine and my sweety, it made for a nice, simple dinner.
first time i made my granny's syrup sticks. my grand mother sells her home made bread and cookies on markets and these are still some of my favorite biscuits ever.
to make them you need
200 grams margarine
200 grams sugar
250 grams wheat flour
1 dl chopped almond
2 table spoons syrup
2 tea spoons baking soda
1 table spoon vanilla sugar
mix margarine and sugar first, then add all the other ingredients. the dough is quite sticky but that's how it should be. make long rolls about as thick as a finger, and place them on a cookie sheet with enough space between, they float out! place in oven for 12-15 minutes in 175 degrees celsius. when slightly brown, take them out and cut into sticks. wait for them to cool.

I love those spiral bound cookbooks that are put out by churches and community groups - this one is called "The Salem Sampler" and has recipes from the members of the Salem Covenant Church in New Brighton (wherever that is) and then an old Swedish cookbook, called "The Smorgasbord Cookbook".

Perhaps they should have named this Wilted Salad. Ugh. How unappetizing.
The recipe says to take pear juice from the canned pears, and add mint extract and green food coloring, then pour it over the top. The pic doesn't look green, but whatever. Eeew.
From Cooking the Modern Way, 1948. This is a publication by the Planters Peanut Oil people.

The Banana Cookbook is a hoot! - look at the second picture and they have all these little animated bananas doing wacky things in the book...
Community cook books are a well known sight in Island kitchens and have been since the late 19th century. The first cookbook complied on PEI is thought to be the Jubilee Cook Book published in 1897 by the Ladies’ Aid Society of the First Methodist Church in Charlottetown (and conveniently republished by PEIM&HF in 1987 and available for purchase in the Beaconsfield gift shop).
Many of these early cookbooks were printed with the purpose to raise funds, often in relation to a community church project, and usually organized by women’s groups. These cookbooks allowed home-chefs to share their culinary skills and knowledge with others in their community. Today they are an excellent example of how Island communities were using the ingredients available to them at a specific time in the past.
This cookbook is from 1954, published by the St. Mary’s Anglican Church Guild in Summerside and printed by the North American Press in Kansas City, Missouri. It features a list of the St. Mary’s Anglican Church Guild member as well as advertisements for Holman’s General Store, Jenkins Brothers Limited Canners, as well as the Gulf Broadcasting Company Ltd. Each recipe includes the name of the woman who submitted it.

Les livres de recettes communautaires sont bien connus dans les cuisines de l’Île, et ce, depuis la fin du 19e siècle. On croit que le premier livre de recettes à être compilé à l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard est le Jubilee Cook Book, publié en 1897 par la Ladies’ Aid Society de la première église méthodiste à Charlottetown. (Il a été publié à nouveau par le Musée et la Fondation du patrimoine de l’Î.-P.-É. en 1987, et est en vente à la boutique de Beaconsfield.)
Bon nombre de ces premiers livres de recettes étaient imprimés dans le but de recueillir des fonds, souvent en relation avec un projet d’église communautaire. Le tout était habituellement organisé par des groupes de femmes. Ces livres de recettes ont permis aux cuisiniers amateurs de partager leurs talents culinaires et leurs connaissances avec les autres membres de leur communauté. Aujourd’hui, ils sont un excellent exemple de la façon dont les communautés de l’Île utilisaient les ingrédients à leur disposition à un moment précis dans le passé.
Ce livre de recettes date de 1954; il a été publié par la guilde de l’église anglicane St. Mary à Summerside et imprimé par North American Press à Kansas City, au Missouri. On y trouve la liste des membres de la guilde de l’église anglicane St. Mary, ainsi que des annonces publicitaires de Holman’s General Store, Jenkins Brothers Limited Canners et Gulf Broadcasting Company Ltd. Chaque recette est accompagnée du nom de la femme qui l’a soumise.
