RECIPES FROM STS. PETER & PAUL CHURCH Volume III | California, Kentucky Circa 1998

RECIPES FROM STS. PETER & PAUL CHURCH Volume III is a regional cookbook with recipes from members of the Saints Peter and Paul Church in California, Kentucky.  Each recipe includes the name of who submitted the recipe.

The cookbook is filled with simple and yummy recipes like: Fruit Dip with Marshmallow Fluff, Sauerkraut Balls (possibly a take on those served at Chicago's old Coachlight Restaurant), Creamy Cole Slaw similar to Big Boy Restaurants, Grandma's Macaroni & Cheese with Velveeta Cheese, and many more.

The 98-page comb-bound cookbook measures 9" by 6” and is in near mint condition with no tears or bent corners.

A must-have addition to your culinary library, this cookbook is an example of a community cookbook. Frequently published by a group of women as a fundraiser, these treasured cookbooks allow us to gain a unique insight into American culture, social norms, and the collective history during an era. Through the recipes, kitchen equipment used, household hints and headnotes, the reader is provided a valuable snapshot of historical details that might not be documented elsewhere. As a result, these cookbooks have become unofficial records of the past, often valued by collectors and culinary scholars more for their historical relevance, than the recipes inside.
