To Serve Them All My Dishes




During a recent visit to an historic house, I spotted a book on a kitchen shelf and laughed out loud. "The Way to a Man's Heart" appeared on the cover in large type, followed by "The Settlement Cookbook" (see photo above, blurry because taking photos was prohibited in the house and I took this one when no one was looking, and with an unsteady—and guilty—hand). Turns out the book was published more than 100 years ago (circa 1900) and contains recipes from or for immigrants hoping to assimilate in America. Best of all, it's still in publication and on Amazon. I want to order a copy to go with these other classics I recently picked up for my kitchen.
