Recipes Along the Way (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781492127574)

I'm a native of rural Iowa, spending my first eight years living in a jailhouse. I grew up watching my mom and aunts in their kitchens, copying their example. "Recipes Along the Way" is written from the heart as seen through my eyes as a child growing to adulthood. The text is unique from other cookbooks because delicious recipes are infused with American history of a pioneer family's westward expansion in a new world. I share a hands-on method of cooking by giving step-by-step instructions for more than 300 everyday recipes. Vintage photos as well as cooking theme photos are included in my work. This historical autobiography spans two centuries. The purpose of the book is two-fold- to preserve lifestyles and recipes of previous generations and to teach future generations. Cross the Mississippi in 1854 then travel by oxen and covered wagon to the open prairie. Experience country living and log schoolhouses. Catch gold fever and venture west to seek prosperity while you enjoy recipes along the way...
