(More customer reviews)I have been so impressed with this cookbook!
First off, what a lovely peek into the Amish life and their kitchen! I feel privileged to have this inside look and for all that is shared in this book. Such an honest and real book, just lovely! I nice balance of stories, photos, tips and insight, with the majority focused on recipes, and believe me, there are A LOT of recipes. They all are so appealing including a ton of recipes for cookies, bars and brownies that you just cannot go wrong with!
One of my favorite parts of this cookbook is found in the back, "The Amish Cook's Baking Tips and Table". This includes all sorts of substitutions such as if you don't have brown sugar, cake flour, what to use in place of shortening, etc. What a lifesaver when you're into a recipe and realize you're missing something! I plan on making a copy of this page to keep or post in a convenient location.
A lovely book that did not dissapoint! Thank you to the authors for such an intimate look into the Amish kitchen and the role baking plays in their lives.
