The Most Recent Additions to This Category are First!
The Enterprising Housekeeper 200 Tested Recipes by Helen Louise Johnson Illustrated With Kitchen Helps The Enterprise Mfg. Co.of PA. Philadelphia U.S.A. This one is a gem. It is 106 years old and like new! I don't know where this was hiding for more than 100 years, but it obviously was never used. Enterprise published these for many years to promote the kitchen tools that they produced; sad irons, cherry stoners, grinders, food mills, food presses, coffee grinders, etc. I still have and use my mother's Enterprise grinder, they were made to last. This little recipe book is full of recipes, menus, kitchen advice and plenty of illustrated advertising for their products. This is a great addition to an antique cook book collection. CONDITION: The only issue with this booklet are some rough edges at the top of a few pages. It appears that a few page tops may not have been properly cut when the booklet was produced and the owner may have ripped them apart herself leaving rough torn edges. I have shown this in the photos. Otherwise this is in great condition.  Secrets Of The Jam Cupboard Jellies And Jams In Delightful New Uses This little cook booklet has pretty pastel artwork featuring a lot of recipes using jams and jellies, not just desserts, but also sandwiches, salads and meats. CONDITION: Good condition with pages clean and tightly bound.  30 New Recipes From The $20,000 Cook Book This leaflet offers 30 recipes that were taken from the cookbook by Minute Tapioca that reportedly cost them $20,000 to publish. The last page of this leaflet provides a coupon to send in for a free copy of the cook book. This leaflet has nice art work with desserts shown in/on depression glass. CONDITION: There are folds/creases on the back cover as seen in the photo. One recipe page has a tear, but is complete and intact. Clean pages, tightly bound.   Originally published as 'How America Eats,' <b><font color=red>The Best In American Cooking</font></b> is Clementine Paddleford's collection of more than 800 mouth-watering recipes collected from treasured family recipes of American housewives in 42 states and a few specialties from famous restaurants, governors' mansions and even the dining room of the U.S. Senate. Every type of food is included, from hearty soups to tempting desserts and recipes galore for breads, biscuits and rolls, pies, cakes and cookies. The book is in Very Good condition with only a previous owner's name handwritten in the front to keep it from looking New. The dust jacket is Very Good, too, with only very minor edge/corner wear. The book is a book club edition and has no ISBN designation.

First published in 1908, by the 1940's they claimed right on the front cover-"More Than 5 million Copies in Use." And they were actually used by their owners as evidenced in all the handwritten notes and recipes that are found in so many copies.

Ill.  The Columbia Cook Book A Complete Home Instructor By Adelaide Hollingsworth Illustrated Measures 8"x 9 1/2" x 2 1/2" thick. As with many of the cookbooks from the 1800's this is a massive "compendium" of all aspects of running a household from cooking to flowers, medical, etiquette, nursing and cleaning. It would take hours to read this, but what a wonderful look into the life of a wife and mother in the late 1800's. These books are fascinating. CONDITION: Cover is dark and worn. Hinges are loose but still attached. Pages are clean, but age discolored and still tightly bound except for the very last page of the index.

It was produced immediately following WWI by the United States Food Administration to encourage older children to save and share food so that it may be used to help starving children overseas. There is a direct message from Herbert Hoover, a hunger map of Europe, a prayer "Grace At Table", black and white photos and line drawings. This is an interesting look at a time in our history after the Great War, The War To End All Wars. CONDITION: The cover is paper over board and has a few small slits to the paper at the spine. All pages are clean and tightly bound. The book is in very good condition at almost one hundred years old.

This wonderful, nostalgic celebration of the old-fashioned desserts we all love is a perfect companion volume to Betty Crocker's Old-Fashioned Cookbook. Copyright 1992 by General Mills, Inc., Minneapolis, Minnesota with 113 pages and still in good condition.  Nothing can compare to the aroma and fragrance of freshly-baked bread, except perhaps for a plateful of delicate but rich little cookies or a moist and rich torte or cake. Home baking is one of those quiet yet deeply satisfying pleasures that not only supply satisfaction in doing but also delirium in the tasting. What makes good baking? First-rate ingredients and careful measurement, followed by precise execution. And anything homemade will taste better than what can be store bought. This doesn't mean you can get away with baking from a mix and calling it homemade, despite the fact that many of today's baking mixes are quite good. The effort expended in starting with flour, butter, sugar, eggs and natural flavorings is actually very little greater than opening a box, and the results will win many more compliments. This book contains recipes from muffins, quick breads, yeast breads, biscuits, scones, rolls, cakes, pies and tarts, baked desserts, cookies, brownies and bars, plus others in 477 pages. Published in 1997 by Smithmark Publishers, New York, New York and is still in pretty good condition.  Gingerbread is tasty, fun and very versatile; there are light and dark gingerbreads, chocolate gingerbread and even gingerbread laden with fruits, nuts and candies. Gingerbread is a highly original collection of gingerbread castles, animals, cottages and cakes to created for Christmas, birthday parties and as gifts for children and adults alike. Using only simple, traditional gingerbread recipes there are 24 wonderful projects to make - from a medieval castle and gilded crown to a woodcutter's cottage and a gingerbread Christmas tree. Whether decorated with piped icing, gold leaf paint or tiny candies, the projects taste as delicious as they look. Using simple techniques, the projects are easy to construct, and each stage is illustrated with step-by-step photographs.

Drawing on her twenty-five years of teaching and baking experience, she has crafted a work that would become the essential book for any new or experienced pastry maker. The Primer is, in essence, a book within a book, and in it, Carole puts her years of teaching experience to use. First she teaches readers how to make two basic doughs; American-style pie pastry and French-style tart pastry. Then, in four lessons, the most popular pies and tarts are created (apple and lemon meringue, pear and French fruit with pastry cream). And once you've learned these "mother" recipes, you are set. So whether you're a novice or a well-established baker, head for the Primer and get your hands on some flour.

Although you may first have heard about gingerbread as a child in the story of Hansel and Gretel, this spicy sweet is perhaps the oldest cake in the world. It is said to have been invented by a Greek from Rhodes about 2800 B.C. and soon became famous throughout the Mediterranean area. Today we use ginger as a spice in the preparation of many dishes and gingerbread is a treat for children and adults. The simplest house in this book is the Christmas A-frame. It requires no special tools and children can do most of the decorating themselves. If you have a little more time you can make more fanciful creations ~ an elaborate depiction of an old world castle, Santa's Christmas workshop, a church, Santa's loaded sleigh, the witches' cottage, a Nativity scene, Christmas tree decorations, a bears' cave, and more. These beautiful creations look very impressive but they aren't hard to do. Whichever project you choose, you're sure to delight all the participants and produce a spectacular holiday showpiece to be enjoyed by all the visitors at you house.

Book measures 10" x 9" with 80 pages.  To most people, the word gingerbread brings thoughts of cookie-cutter gingerbreadmen and women in painted coats. Gingerbread: Things to Make and Bake opens up a new world of ideas and introduces over twenty exciting and original projects, from a barn with farm animals to an angel mobile. Gingerbread is filled with projects to make and bake all year round ~ not just during the traditional winter season. Construct a gingerbread Easter basket; make animals, toys, and shapes for a child's party or for unique holiday decorations; and, of course, use ornaments to decorate your wreath and house at Christmas. The book is beautifully illustrated with thirty-eight full-color photographs, all taken by Randy O'Rourke, showing full views and close-ups of all the projects. Author Barbara Morgenroth supplies a lively text and offers suggestions for special effects, such as weathered barn door, a house with chocolate shingles, and a candy pebbled walkway; and Teresa Layman, baker and designer of all the projects, provides the diagrams and techniques for both the novice and the experienced baker.
