Introduction If you like old recipes, you've come to the right place. This website is full of some great old fashioned recipes from the oldest cookbooks I could find. Most of the recipes are marked with the date of the cookbook, so you will know what they were using back then to prepare it. If they are not marked they are from my own recipe box. My favorite recipes require few ingredients, but some are so good, it's worth the extra ingredients.
Most of the recipes on these pages vary from the 1920's to the 1970's. It just seems they cooked food in simpler ways back then.
Who was Fannie Farmer? Her recipe books have been around for years. Even the cookbook I have has been taped together. Which says only one thing, it's been used a lot! The problem that I have had with this cookbook is that many ingredients and utensils are not in use anymore.
