Barbara Swell once more shares her dedicated research into the lives in days long gone with Old-Time Farmhouse Cooking: Rural American Recipes and Farm Lore.
Another delightful paperback to add to your collection of historical cookery books, this nostalgic step back in time not only shares the recipes from a ‘make do and mend’ era, but also the stories passed down from those who lived the life. Try making your own Harvest Bread, Sweet Stuffed Potatoes or Carrot Jam just like they did long, long ago.
Old-Time Farmhouse Cooking is available from all good book sellers now.
