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.

It is a great example of a "community cookbook,' which were often published for women by women.  These cookbooks provide unexpected insights into aspects of American culture and public history at a given time in history.  They give the reader a snapshot of historical details not documented elsewhere and have become unofficial records of the past.  For some cookbook collectors and culinary scholars, their historical value far outweighs the recipes inside.

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