Book Description
The book was born from a discovery made after the purchase of a 100+ year old farmhouse. Within the home we found an old, dented, metal box with sliding drawers. To our delight, it was filled with old recipes from the original 3 generations of owners. The book is 120 pages of recipes, interesting and/or humorous stories, along with over 200 epic photos of hunting, fishing, family, and farm. Many of the recipes are for wild game and fish. The recipe creators hunted, fished, farmed, or gathered most of their food from their land. The book's flavor contains ingredients of a bygone era. It is a book that people who appreciate the outdoors, farming, fishing, hunting, and cooking unique dishes should find very interesting. The stories are true and from the heart. The book is a tribute to a remarkable family.

Book Description
Imparting all the warmth and fragrance of an old-fashioned, turn-of-the-century kitchen, The Settlement Cook Book was originally devised as a cooking and homemaking primer for newly arrived immigrants. Filled with hundreds of recipes for good eating, this back-to-basics book is also good reading. A blend of hardy, old-fashioned dishes and simple recipes that will fit today's demanding lifestyles, the text covers everything from making roast chicken (with chestnut dressing) to the best way to dust a room. Clearly detailed, easy-to-read directions tell how to create such tasty fare as griddle cakes, shrimp Creole, and mulligatawny soup; cheese fondue, oyster a la poulette, and other Continental specialties; as well as ethnic foods such as gefilte fish and matzo ball soup. Sections on preserving, canning, and pickling are interspersed with quaint "lessons" on how to sterilize milk, build a fire, and discern fresh eggs from stale ones. A delightful culinary education from the days before convection ovens and "dream kitchens," The Settlement Cook Book is a treasury of Americana, a delightful sampling of cultural history that will enchant lovers of old cookbooks and well-prepared foods.
