old cookbook

These are the cookbooks used for this blog and in the book series In Great Grandmother’s Time. As I often use more than one cookbook for a blog post or chapter in a book, I edit the information to make the text, spelling, and punctuation consistent.

You can read the original cookbooks on Archive.org, Gutenberg.org, as well as other sites with books in the public domain.
