I was looking for some new recipes to add to our Thanksgiving dinner and came across this review of a cookbook from The New Orleans Times Picayune in 2003.
"Whatever happened to Great Grandma's recipe file or the battered old cookbook full of her handwritten notes? How can such culinary treasures be preserved for generations to come? Who might help you recreate the lost favorites you remember from your childhood? And why don't they taste the same when you make them? You'll find some surprising answers, and plenty of old-fashioned comfort food, in an intriguing new cookbook by kitchen sleuth Lari Robling, "Endangered Recipes: Too Good to be Forgotten" (Stewart, Tabori & Chang, 2003).
This article had some great tips (and caveats) for recreating traditional family recipes. I have reprinted the article below and will follow in the next few days with the recipes mentioned.
