This book is
dedicated to the memory of the amazing and valiant women and one man who created these recipes. When I asked each woman to tell me their story and to share with me their prized recipes, they were most gracious doing so. Sadly all of these women are now cooking in Heaven. I’ll bet the denizens up there are eating very well.
I started this collection in 1960 with the idea of someday publishing a History/Cookbook showcasing their best recipes. Little did I know at the time that it would take me 40 years to put together.
So to the memory of:
Also my daughter Ann who ate many of these dishes growing up and who now proof reads my work, as well as taking care of this old lady.
Treasures of the Great Depression
is not just a cookbook. It is a composite of recipes and stories of the people who shared them with me. These people are the true treasures of that very hard time. They took what little they had and concocted wonderful nourishing meals that sustained their families. These recipes have endured the test of time. They are every bit as good as today as they were when these very resilient ladies were cooking them, over coal stoves and wood fires in some cases, Gas and electric stoves were unknown to most.
I have updated some of them to take advantage of the time saving items available to us today such as bouillon cubes, microwaves, gas and electric stoves, and some pre-packaged frozen foods.
I hope you enjoy making these recipes and your families enjoy eating them as much as mine did.
