Description

Betty Groff has gathered together from friends and relatives over 300 family and kitchen-tested recipes to create the definitive book on this very American cuisine. The day-to-day lives and seasonal celebrations of Lancaster County's Mennonite, Amish, Moravian, Brethren, and Quaker families are filled with foods that mirror the bounty of the farming year. Rich in history, this warm book contains all the classic favorites with an eye toward limiting their salt, cream and butter content while preserving their homemade goodness. Includes Sunshine Squash Soup, Moravian Sugar Cake, Box Panned Oysters, and much more.

I'm originally from Pennsylvania and I remember eating Grandma's "Shoo-fly pie". Thank goodness I found a great recipe for the pie in this book! It's delicious and just as I remembered. There are plenty of other traditional Pennsylvania Dutch recipes in the book, too.
