"Lovingly compiled by historic American cooking expert Barbara Swell, Old-Time Farmhouse Cooking is a superbly presented collection of authentic recipes with generational appeal and old-time flavor -- many of which are excerpted from publications circulated up to a century ago like "Farm and Fireside". Upbeat excerpts from 1900's era articles concerning farm life and the hardworking people who lived it add a very special atmosphere to such delightful and pleasing treats such as Verna's Icebox Butter Buns, Never-Fail Dill Pickles, Tomato Surprise, Swedish Orange Rye Bread, Meringue Chews, and more" -- Midwest Book Review

Synopsis
Climb down off your tractor and dig into some old-fashioned, farm-fresh comfort food! We have got cranberry beef stew simmering on the old wood cookstove and some sweet corn just pulled off the stalks. Try a dab of this farm-churned golden butter on the orange rye bread still warm from the oven. Whether you are a born farmer, or a country-minded city person, you will enjoy these creative rural American recipes from a time when the food was wholesome and life was full of fresh air and sunshine. These recipes, stores, jokes, advice, farm lore, and illustrations were collected from a wide variety of American agricultural sources from the 1880s to the 1950s., Climb down off your tractor and dig into some old-fashioned, farm-fresh comfort food We've got cranberry beef stew simmering on the old wood cookstove and some sweet corn just pulled off the stalks.

    This is one of the best online transactions I have ever had. Communication was great. They went out of their way to get it to me as fast as possible. I needed the zipper foot for a last-minute class and they made sure it arrived in plenty of time. It was well packaged. It is in primo condition and the original piece so I knew it would work. Thank you so much.
